a new sporting competition called HYROX, World Series of Fitness. We will be holding the Dallas Inaugural event on Saturday, February 22 at the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center.
I'd like to invite you to be on the HYROX Dallas volunteer team. This is a fun and energetic event to help with. In addition, the entire event takes place indoors. If you'd like to check it out, go to our website at www.hyrox.com/en.
HYROX is a new fitness competition that originated in Germany in 2018. Utilizing 100,000 sq.ft. of event & viewer observation space, the competition starts with a 1 km run, followed by eight (8) functional workouts with a total of five (5) miles of running mixed in. The combination of functional exercises and endurance makes HYROX unique yet still attainable for people from varying athletic and fitness backgrounds. There are male, female, doubles team and pro divisions. This year some of the top Crossfit, OCR and Spartan Race athletes will be competing in the pro division.
