Distances and format at ATHX Finals Lisbon

The organiser has not yet published the distances or formats for ATHX Finals Lisbon in a way we could include here, so check the website of the organiser for the latest information. A fitness race, also called a hybrid race, combines running with functional workout stations in one timed race. The format is growing fast and suits runners as well as athletes who mostly train in the gym.

How to prepare for ATHX Finals Lisbon

A fitness race combines running with workout stations, so train both. Mix steady runs and interval sessions with strength work such as lunges, wall balls, rowing, sled work and kettlebell carries, and practise running straight after a hard station: heavy legs on the run are the main challenge.

Learn the exact format and the weights of your division in advance and simulate a few stations in the gym. Most fitness races take place indoors on hard floors, so stable road or training shoes are usually a better choice than trail shoes.

Plan the day itself as well. Arrive early enough to collect your start number, park and find the start area without rushing. Bring dry clothes, a towel, a bag for wet or muddy gear and something to eat and drink after the finish. Check the information from the organiser for start times, waves, parking, the minimum age and what is included in your ticket.
