HYROX New York June 2023

The most recent New York event was on June 10th and 11th 2023, in a 2-day event at the Meadowlands Exposition Center. It was the first American event of the 2023/24 season. Full details of the event are below.

It appeared to be a relatively slow course, with a lot of competitors on a busy, narrow, running track, with 4.25 laps needed for every 1km run. This didn’t (in general) make for fast times, but by all accounts it was a fantastic atmosphere in the venue across both days.

Women’s Pro

The Women’s Pro race was won by the 2023 World Champion Lauren Weeks in a time of 01:04:27.

Second place was taken by Kris Rugloski (who was the World Champion in 2022) in 01:07:32, closely followed by Terra Jackson in 01:07:49.
