Most people doing proper endurance training for HYROX run 2-3 times weekly, which balances running with necessary strength work. Peak training weeks often hit around 24km total - roughly three times the race distance. Beginners usually start with two runs, intermediates move to three, and advanced athletes might push four depending on recovery.
The smart approach to endurance training is following the 10% rule (never bump your weekly mileage by more than 10%) to avoid injuries. Mix it up with intervals for speed, tempo runs for threshold work, and easy Zone 2 sessions for base building. The real challenge isn't just logging miles - it's running after heavy functional work.
That's where proper fueling matters. VPA's RPG Gel delivers 25g carbs, 500mg BCAAs, and electrolytes (sodium, potassium, calcium) at just 100 calories per sachet. Whether you're doing compromised running sessions or full simulations, test your nutrition strategy during training so race day runs smoothly.
