Racecation Review

New York City brings HYROX to the global stage in one of the most iconic urban settings on earth. Racing here means testing yourself in the city that never sleeps, where the pace is fast, the energy is electric, and the skyline inspires you to push harder. Off the course, athletes can immerse themselves in world-class culture: Broadway shows, Central Park strolls, rooftop views, and food from every corner of the globe. New York isn’t just another racecation — it’s the ultimate urban experience that blends intensity, ambition, and unforgettable atmosphere.

Hotels

Visa guide

Visa Waiver Program (VWP): Citizens of 40+ countries (including much of Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Korea, etc.) can travel to the U.S. for up to 90 days without a visa if they obtain an ESTA (Electronic System for Travel Authorization) before departure.
Standard Tourist Visa (B1/B2): Travelers from countries not part of the VWP will need to apply in advance for a U.S. visitor visa at a U.S. consulate or embassy.
Passport Requirements: Must be valid for at least 6 months beyond the intended stay (some exceptions apply under bilateral agreements).

Cost Insights

New York is one of the priciest HYROX destinations.

Hotels: €180–350 per night mid-range, with boutique or luxury hotels much higher.
Meals: €15–20 for quick eats, €30–50+ for sit-down restaurants.
Transport: Subway single ride ~$2.90 (€2.70), yellow cabs/Uber significantly more (~€20+ for short trips).
👉 Budget carefully — the city delivers, but it comes at a cost.

Public transport guide

NYC transport is vast, crowded, and essential for getting around efficiently.

Airports → City: AirTrain + Subway (cheapest), yellow cabs/Uber (fastest but pricey).
City Transport: Subway runs 24/7, covering almost every corner of the city. Buses supplement the grid, while CitiBikes are available for short trips.
Tips: Get a MetroCard or OMNY tap card for easy use. Avoid driving — traffic is brutal.
