Three male athletes scored sub-60-minute times in Copenhagen.
The 2024 HYROX Copenhagen race occurred on March 23, 2024, in Copenhagen, Denmark. The routine HYROX race comprised eight functional fitness stations split up by eight one-kilometer runs featuring three male athletes who achieved sub-60-minute scores.
Of those three, Oli Fricker of the UK locked in the fasted time of 57:23. He was the only athlete to cross the finish line with 58 minutes. Laura Valgreen won the Women’s Pro race in her home country with a time that was more than two minutes faster than fellow countrywoman runner-up Ida Mathilde Steensgaard.
