The Race

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

BIKE ERG

200m
The Bike Erg simulates a realistic cycling experience. You pedal until you have reached the required distance.

SLED PUSH

50m
You are pushing a heavy sledge forward.

WALL BALL

100 times
Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and hold the wall ball against your chest with both hands. Then lower yourself into a deep squat in a controlled manner and throw the ball explosively up against the wall. Catch the ball as it comes down, immediately lower yourself back into a squat and repeat the movement.

KETTLE BELL SWING

75 times
Hold the kettlebell with both hands and swing it between your legs by pushing your hips backwards. Then use the power in your hips to swing the kettlebell forwards and upwards to shoulder height, tightening your core and keeping your arms straight.

SKI ERG

1000m
You mimic cross-country skiing movements by pulling down on the cables at the top, albeit with the necessary resistance. The more force you exert when pulling, the faster you go “forward”.

BURPEE BROAD JUMP

80m
In the infamous burpee broad jump, you lower yourself into a plank position, then bring your chest to the ground and push yourself back up until you are standing upright again. After the burpee, you jump explosively forward in a broad jump, land softly in a light squat and repeat the movement. The further you jump, the fewer burpees you have to do to cover the distance.

ROW ERG

1000m
When rowing, you make a rowing motion: you pull on a handle while pushing from your legs and hips, repeating this motion over and over.

FARMERS CARRY

200m
In the farmers carry, you walk or run while holding heavy weights in both hands.

FRONT CARRY

100m
With the front carry, you carry a heavy weight in front of your body, with your back straight and your core firmly engaged.

LUNGES

100m
In the lunge, with a sandbag on your shoulders, step forward with one leg while bending the other leg downwards until you touch the ground.

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.
