HYROX, the world's premier endurance and strength fitness competition, brings its global format to Tampa with races across multiple divisions.
HYROX is coming to the Tampa Convention Center from October 23 to 25, 2026, bringing its global fitness race to Florida's Gulf Coast. It's a three-day event, and the race runs through one of the center's main exhibition hallsβa climate-controlled indoor space with smooth flooring and wide running lanes. The venue is at 333 South Franklin Street, right on the Riverwalk in downtown Tampa, so if you're in the area, the nearby Tampa Riverwalk gives you plenty of outdoor space for a walk once you've finished.
There are six divisions to choose from: Open, Pro, Doubles, Doubles Mixed, Relay, and Age-group. That means you can enter on your own or team up with a partner, and the age-group categories let you compete against people in your own bracket. The race itself is a test of strength, endurance, and mental grit, and it's designed to bring together elite athletes, everyday competitors, and first-timers all in the same place. Whether you've been training for years or this is your first time stepping onto a HYROX floor, there's a spot for you.
The competition draws from all over. You'll see local Florida gyms from Tampa, Miami, Orlando, and Jacksonville going up against visitors from the US Northeast, Texas, and the Carolinas, as well as athletes coming in from Latin America. Tampa airport serves as a major hub for the Caribbean and Central America, which helps pull in a crowd from across the region. It's a good mix of local faces and people traveling from far away.
