How to Get There +
The nearest major airport to Johannesburg is O.R. Tambo International Airport (JNB), approximately a 45-minute to 1-hour drive to the venue, depending on traffic.
Public transport options can be complex. The Gautrain rapid rail network connects the airport to various parts of the city; however, direct public transit to the specific venue is unlikely to be straightforward.
Your most convenient option will likely be a taxi or ride-sharing service (e.g., Uber) from the airport directly to the Johannesburg venue. Parking availability at the venue will be communicated closer to the event date.
City Guide: Johannesburg +
Expected weather in May: 10-23°C (50-73°F), 40-70% humidity
For athletes heading to Johannesburg for the HYROX 2026 race, consider staying in areas like Sandton or Rosebank, which offer a range of hotels and are relatively close to the venue. These districts are known for their safety and accessibility, with plenty of dining options.
Johannesburg boasts a diverse culinary scene. Within Sandton and Rosebank, you'll find everything from upscale restaurants offering international cuisine to more casual eateries and vibrant markets. Look for places serving traditional South African dishes like "braai" (barbecue) or "bunny chow" for an authentic taste of the region. Many establishments are accustomed to catering to international visitors, ensuring a welcoming dining experience.

What your training plan covers
A HYROX race demands more than just running or lifting. Our training plans balance three types of work so you arrive race-ready for every lap and every station.
Pure Running
Running makes up more than 50% of a HYROX race. We build your aerobic base and pacing strategy so you can hold a strong pace across all 8 km of running.
Functional Station Training
Targeted strength and conditioning for the 8 HYROX stations. Sled push, sled pull, burpee broad jumps, rowing, farmers carry, sandbag lunges, wall balls, and SkiErg.
Compromised Running
The true separator in HYROX. We program running intervals on fatigued legs to simulate the demands of running immediately after completing a station.
"I was skeptical about another fitness app, but TrainRox is different. It's built specifically for HYROX, not adapted from generic CrossFit templates."
