Racing in France
Toulouse has its own event, Hyrace: a charity race run by Sporting Form gym coaches, with 8 km of running broken by eight functional stations, raced solo, as a duo or as a company relay team of four. HYROX follows each of its eight 1 km runs with a workout station. ATHX is 2.5 hours of competition across strength, endurance and MetCon X workouts, solo or in pairs. Gymrace, a Mud Masters production, mixes 5 km of running with stations such as the sled push and wall balls, for solo racers, pairs or relay teams. At Battle Cancer, which races in Paris, teams of four compete and fundraising counts towards the leaderboard.
Eurostar runs from London St Pancras International to Paris Gare du Nord, and the EU's Entry/Exit System checks happen at St Pancras, before you leave the UK. A UK passport must have been issued less than 10 years before you arrive and expire at least three months after you plan to leave the Schengen area. In Paris, HYROX uses Paris Expo Porte de Versailles (metro line 12, or trams T2 and T3a) and the Grand Palais (Champs-Élysées Clemenceau, lines 1 and 13), which has its own entrance for each event. ATHX and Gymrace use the Paris Event Center, six minutes from Porte de la Villette on metro line 7 (exit 3) or tram T3b.
In Toulouse, HYROX uses MEETT in Aussonne (tram T1 to MEETT Beauzelle, or seven minutes' drive from Blagnac airport), while Hyrace is at the MIN on avenue des États-Unis (metro line B to La Vache). ATHX races at Montpellier's exhibition centre and Sud de France Arena in Pérols, two minutes from the airport (tram line 3 to Parc Expo), and at Marseille Chanot, five stops from Saint-Charles station on metro line 2 (Rond-Point du Prado). HYROX also visits Eurexpo Lyon (tram T5) and Nice.
