Hyrox Rotterdam Map + Race Strategy
yoo. who’s racing rotterdam this week? the map is wild, so figure I’d share some extra details and maybe if anybody that’s a mario kart expert can help with race strategy. 🙃
here’s what I’m seeing:
- more u-turns than you’d expect and the stations aren’t in numerical order, so don’t assume you know where you’re going.
- the lap rules for singles & doubles: enter the IN arch the third time you see it. every single run.
- lap rules for relay: relay run 1 — enter the IN arch the third time you see it / relay runs 2-8 — enter the IN arch the second time you see it.
- 2 min penalty for running too little
- to save time, plan to have water after your stations, because they’re not in the best position for most stations when you enter the rox zone.
- the average roxzone running distance is like 600-700m, but this one seems crazy.
- still unclear the path to get to wall balls quickly.
feel like there’s gonna be a bunch of people running in all sorts of directions.
