Nineteen weeks. Four camps. Eight stations at altitude. On the morning of November 22nd you and your partner rope in for the Hyrox Women’s Doubles Open — your first summit. This is the route.

Every week you finish, tap its waypoint flag in the log below — the rope inks upward, a flag is planted, and the sky above the mountain moves from night toward sunrise. Reach the summit and dawn breaks.
Eight stations stand between you and the summit.
8 × 1 km of running, and after every kilometre one of these. In doubles, the runs are shared and every station is split — you and your partner carve each one in half.
Splits assume equal partners — the plan was written for a pair training at the same level. Loads shown are Women’s Doubles Open race loads.
Know your air.
Your heart-rate zones are the altitude bands of this climb — most of the expedition lives low, in conversational air. And there is one instrument to move: the 5 km.

Four camps. Nineteen weeks. One rope.
Each camp is a phase of the climb with its own weather. Open any day for the full session. At the foot of each camp is your expedition log — plant a flag when a week is done, and write down what the mountain told you.
Six lines redrawn on the map.
Your coach struck six movements from the original route — machines and isolation work that don’t climb — and replaced each with something that carries straight to race day.
