HYROX returned to Miami on 19th April 2025, with the event being held at the Miami Beach Convention Center.
The event was one of the qualification races for the new Pro Doubles Elite 15 World Championship. The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place finishers in the Male & Female Pro Doubles category qualified for the World Championships in Chicago in June 2025.
Previous events have been held in Miami – once on the beach as part of the Miami Beach Fitness Festival; and once in Fort Lauderdale.
Read on for the main results of the day…
