[ Acapulco · Mexico ]
A programme written around the kit you can actually get to in Acapulco, whether that is a full gym or a corner of the spare room. Acapulco hosts a race, so every session is dated backwards from that weekend. Built by HYROX Elite 15 athlete Ben Sutherland. See your Week 1 before you decide anything.
Eight stations, eight 1-km runs. Sled push and pull with explicit progression, wall balls scaled to your bodyweight, run intervals that match the race.
Tell us your race date and every session lands on a calendar day. Miss a week and Sunday's rebuild absorbs it. The plan bends, the race date doesn't.
Ben races in the HYROX Elite 15 Doubles with his brother Harry. The programming you follow is the structure he uses, scaled to your level.

The race comes to Acapulco. That means you can walk the venue beforehand, and it means the people you train beside will be on the same start list. A programme dated to that weekend is worth more than a generic twelve weeks.

Training options in Acapulco are thin on the ground, which matters far less than it sounds. Most of a Hyrox build is running, carrying and squatting, and almost all of it substitutes.
There is no parkrun close to Acapulco, so you will need to measure your own loop. Pick something flat you can repeat, run it every three or four weeks under the same conditions, and treat that time as your benchmark.
A Hyrox is eight kilometre runs with a station between each, which means the skill being tested is running on tired legs, not running fresh. Do at least one session a week where the running comes after the hard work rather than before it.
Acapulco hosts a race, which is a bigger advantage than most people use. You can walk the venue, you will train alongside people on the same start list, and you have no travel to plan on the morning.
Whichever race you enter, the date is what makes a programme a programme. Twelve weeks is the standard build, sixteen if you are starting from very little running, and every session lands on a calendar day rather than a week number.
