Race spotlight
Cape Town, round two is coming in hot! After a spectacular debut in September 2024 and a high-energy showdown in Johannesburg earlier this year, the world’s biggest indoor fitness race returns to the Mother City. This time, expect it all — bigger crowds, bolder energy, and an even better race experience!
Racecation Review
Post-race, explore the best of Sydney’s off-season charm—laneway cafés, rooftop recovery sessions, and a city that stays vibrant year-round. While ocean swims are best left to the brave, brisk coastal walks, buzzing wellness studios, and iconic views keep the vibe strong. It’s a winter race-cation with all the Aussie attitude and none of the sweat-drenched chaos.
Cost Insights
Cape Town delivers exceptional value, especially for travelers from Europe or North America. Central hotels and guesthouses range from $40–120 USD per night, while meals at trendy cafés or seafood restaurants often cost under $20. Ubers are cheap and reliable, and public transport via MyCiTi is budget-friendly. Wine tours, mountain hikes, and beach days add luxury without the expense. Though some areas require awareness for safety, Cape Town is one of the most affordable destinations on the HYROX calendar—for price and sheer experience.
