HYROX Breaks Records in Singapore with 12,840 Racers at 2025 AIA HYROX Open Asian Championship

The AIA HYROX Open Asian Championship 2025 made history this past weekend (28–29 June) as 12,840 athletes from across Asia and beyond gathered at the Singapore National Stadium — marking the largest HYROX race ever held in Asia. With nearly 25,000 athletes and spectators in attendance, the event brought unparalleled energy, fitness, and community spirit to Singapore’s premier sporting venue.

A New Benchmark for Asia’s Fitness Scene

Backed by Sport Singapore and the Singapore Tourism Board, this milestone edition introduced two new competition categories:

  • Adaptive – tailored for athletes with physical disabilities, ensuring a safe and empowering experience
  • Corporate Relay – where colleagues teamed up for a high-energy workplace fitness challenge

From elite competitors to first-timers, the stadium pulsed with support and camaraderie as participants tackled the intense HYROX format: eight 1km runs, each followed by a functional fitness station.

Signature HYROX Challenges

Athletes pushed through HYROX’s signature circuit, which included:

  • 1,000m SkiErg
  • 50m sled pull
  • 50m sled push
  • 80m burpee broad jumps
  • 1,000m row
  • 200m farmers carry
  • 100m sandbag lunges
  • 100 wall balls

The Adaptive category saw inspiring performances, with adjusted reps and weights allowing every athlete to compete with confidence.

Mixed Relay Championship and Regional Victory

Capping off the weekend was the inaugural HYROX Mixed Relay Asian Championship Invitational, where 13 teams from across the region faced off in a thrilling showdown. Team South Korea took the top spot, demonstrating exceptional teamwork and stamina.

What’s Next for HYROX

With Singapore’s fourth edition setting a new regional benchmark, HYROX now gears up for more races across Sydney, Delhi, Hong Kong, Yokohama, Perth, Seoul, and Melbourne as it continues expanding across 31 countries worldwide.

Can’t get enough? HYROX Singapore returns 29–30 November at Singapore Expo. Plus, fitness enthusiasts can look forward to AIA’s Ultimate FitnessFest, which will include a HYROX-inspired challenge with University and Open Editions — designed to be fun, inclusive, and accessible to all fitness levels.
