The Race

The Fitrace

Fitrace alternates 10 different fitness exercises with 10 x 800 m runs.

Exercise Distance/reps Explanation
Bike Erg 2000 m A realistic cycling experience is simulated. You pedal until you’ve covered the required distance.
Sled push 50 m You muscle a heavy sled forward
Kettlebell Swing 75 reps Grab the kettlebell with both hands, swing it between your legs, then launch it straight up to shoulder height. Core locked, arms straight
Wall balls 100 reps Hold the wall ball at chest height. Squat deep, then explosively throw the ball against the wall. Catch it on the rebound, drop back into the squat, and repeat.
Ski Erg 1000 m Pull the cables down like you're carving through snow. The harder you go, the faster you glide.
Burpee Broadjump 80 m Drop into a burpee, then explode forward with a broad jump. Land soft, reset, and repeat. Go big on the jump to cut down on burpees.
Farmers Carry 200 m Pick up a weight in each hand and walk it out, full-body strength in every step.
Row Erg 1000 m Perform a rowing stroke: Engage your legs and hips to power each stroke as you pull the handle.
Front Carry 100 m Walk the distance while holding the weight close, back straight, core tight.
Lunges 100 m Place the bag on your shoulders, step forward with one leg, and lower your hips until your knee touches the ground. Return to standing and repeat on the other leg.

The Formats

Choose you Fitrace experience:

Single

Take on the challenge solo. Complete all exercises and runs individually.

Double

Elevate your connection with your friend, colleague, or partner. In the Fitrace Doubles, you team up with one other Fitracer.
Together you decide who performs each exercise and how many repetitions each person completes. The only exception: both must run the 800m sprints simultaneously.
If both team members are of the same gender, use the respective male or female weights. In a mixed-gender duo, the male weights apply. Take a look at our regulations for all the information.
Example:
  • Fitracer A completes the entire bike erg distance.
  • Fitracer A and B run 800m together.
  • Fitracer B pushes the sled 25m, then is relieved by Fitracer A for the next 25m.
  • Fitracer A and B run 800m together.
  • Fitracer A performs 20 kettlebell swings. Fitracer B does 30, and Fitracer A finishes with 25 more.
