EastRox Hyrox Sim - Final Details

East Rox is fast approaching! This email contains important pre-event information, so please read it carefully.

WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THE EVENT

We are very excited to deliver our third outdoor Hyrox Sim at Go Train East Rocks.

This promises to be another great day, and will provide you with a unique take on the Hyrox experience. 

As this is an outdoor event, please be mindful of the terrain and weather conditions, and ensure you are suitably prepared.

The event’s structure, workout rules and procedures will follow the exact same format as a standard Hyrox event.

RULES

You can refer to Hyrox’s official rulebooks and technical briefing for each division here:

https://hyrox.com/rulebook/

HEAT TIMINGS

This year we will be running Open divisions only. Should you have any questions regarding this, please email [email protected].

Due to the format of the event and equipment availability, participants will be staggered in 10 minute intervals based on your predicted time, and the division you have entered.

The first wave will set off at 10:00AM

Please see the confirmed start times for all participants here:

 START TIMES

REGISTRATION & BAG DROP

Athletes can arrive onsite for registration from 09:00AM.

Once registered, you will receive your timing device from SPORTident who will be on site all day recording, and displaying competitors finish times and overall ranking.

We would advise arriving at least 20 minutes before your start window to allow enough time to sign in and get warmed up.

TIMING CHIPS

You will be responsible for timing in and out of the Roxzone, as well as before and after each of your runs.

There will be a recording device at the start and end of each run loop, and the judges at each station will have a recording device ready for you on arrival at the station.

Your run time will be recorded for the full 1km loop. Your Roxzone time will be for the whole time you are in the Roxzone - so will include transition time to each station.

After each run loop, your next functional fitness station will be displayed on a screen for you.

ONLINE RESULTS

Results will be available soon after you complete the course at  https://www.sportident.co.uk/results/GoTrainEastRocks/2026/EastRox/

TRAVEL & PARKING

If you are arriving by car, you can park onsite if you head to Foxlake Adventures CIC, Dunbar, East Lothian, EH42 1XF.

Car parking is shared with Foxlake so may be busy, however, there is designated overflow parking, which we will use for event parking.

Please refer to Foxlake's webpage for more travel information on how to get there if you are travelling by car, train, or bus

SPECTATORS

You are welcome to bring friends and family to cheer you on as you race.

WATER

There is a water station available in the Roxzone. We kindly ask that you also bring a reusable water bottle to refill throughout the day.

FOOD & DRINKS

Jaybird's Larder at Foxlake will be open for food & drinks from 09:00. They are likely to be very busy, therefore plan accordingly when ordering any hot drinks and food.

Please also bring your own drinks and snacks to keep you fuelled throughout the day.

PHOTOGRAPHY

A photographer will be onsite to take general event content and pictures of you competing across the stations, and on the running course. If you do not wish to be included in any content, please make us aware of this beforehand.

You will have free access to these photos through an online gallery, and the link will be sent to you when all photos are available for viewing.
