Hybrid X vs The Hybrid Games : distance, stations, prix et difficulté comparés (2026-27)

HybridX is a fitness event company based in North Wales that runs its races at the Eirias Events Centre in Colwyn Bay. Its original event, HybridX Stride, is a multi-stage race of seven 600 m runs, each followed by a functional station: assault bike, farmers carry, sled push and drag, row, burpee broad jumps, sandbag lunges and SkiErg. Stride can be entered in Singles, Doubles or a three-person Relay.

HybridX also runs other formats. Off Season Games is a no-run team competition for three people, Engine is a six-zone race scored on distance, and Forge is a nine-zone doubles challenge. There are also Kids Editions for ages 8 and up. Adult events are open from age 16, with divisions for different experience levels, so the races suit first-timers as well as experienced hybrid athletes. Spectators attend free.

The Hybrid Games is a fitness race series run at indoor venues across the UK. The course alternates ten 600 m runs with ten functional stations and finishes with a 200 m sprint, about 6.2 km of running in total. Stations include an air bike, wall balls, rowing, burpee broad jumps, dumbbell snatches, lunges, a farmers carry, a sled pull, SkiErg and a sled push, with separate weights for men and women.

Entries are available as Male or Female Solo and as Male, Female or Mixed Doubles. Every station is judged, athletes are chip-timed, and the organisers state that there is no cut-off time. Results feed a season leaderboard ranked by age group. Recent and upcoming host cities include Liverpool, Newcastle, Birmingham and Glasgow. It suits athletes who train both running and strength and want a judged race.
