Hyrox training in Pennsylvania, built around your race.

There are 60 named gyms and sports centres across Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Allentown, Planet Fitness and Anytime Fitness among them, and the programme is written around whichever one you use. There is no HYROX in Pennsylvania yet. The nearest is Washington D.C., roughly 198 km from Philadelphia in a straight line, and the programme is dated backwards from whichever race you enter. Built by HYROX Elite 15 athlete Ben Sutherland. See your Week 1 before you decide anything.

Washington D.C.

3 September 2026 · 198 km from Philadelphia

Straight-line distance, so the drive is longer. Far enough that a race is a weekend rather than a morning, which changes the taper more than it changes the training — you want to arrive with a day in hand rather than racing off a flight.

What to look for is not a HYROX sticker on the door. It is a sled lane long enough to push on, a spare wall for wall balls, and a rower nobody queues for at 6pm. These are the named sites in the state's largest metros.
