🏃‍♂️ Which mode should you use for Hyrox on your Garmin?

1 min read

If you do Hyrox, you already know that your running pace is critical for your final time. ⏱️
But how do you track it properly inside a warehouse where GPS signal is weak or nonexistent? 🛰️❌

🎯 The prerequisite: the HRM+ chest strap

You’ll need the HRM+ heart rate chest strap.
It gives you access to several useful metrics, including… pace without GPS! 🧠💡


⚙️ The method

  1. Duplicate an activity of type “Indoor Run” 🏃‍♀️🏢
  2. Rename it Hyrox so you can find it easily
  3. Display pace in the data fields on your screen 📲
  4. You’re all set — go crush your time! 💥

😕 The downside

The only drawback of this method is that the activity will be categorized as “Run” in Garmin Connect, instead of Fitness/HIIT. 🤷‍♂️
I tried doing the same thing with a Cardio profile but… it doesn’t work. 😤

If anyone knows why, I’m open to explanations! 🙏
