Station 2 of 8

Hyrox Sled Push 50m

Four lengths of 12.5 metres pushing a weighted sled. The load depends on the division and category, and the carpet decides as much as the weight.

Typical times and loads

Race split is the median athlete in each field last season, from real results. Fresh is the same effort done on its own. Pro athletes are fitter than the Open field, so a Pro time can be quicker even where the load is heavier.

What a faster Sled Push is worth

Take 30 seconds off a fresh Sled Push 50m and the predicted finish comes down by about 33 seconds. The station is raced tired, so time saved fresh is worth a little more on race day.

One thing that helps

A low body angle with the arms locked turns leg drive into the sled. Short, quick steps keep it moving; once a heavy sled stops, starting it again costs more than anything else here.
