- When and where is packet pickup?
- Packet pickup typically occurs at the Stockyards Event Center one day prior to the race and on the morning of the event. Check your specific start wave time as you should arrive at least 90 minutes before your gun start.
- How do I get to the Stockyards Event Center from the airport?
- Take the A-Line commuter train from Denver International Airport (DEN) to Union Station, then use a rideshare (Uber/Lyft) for the final 10-minute drive, or take the light rail to the 38th & Blake station which is a 15-minute walk from the venue.
- Is there parking available at the venue?
- Yes, there is on-site parking at the National Western Center complex, though it can get crowded. Expect to pay a daily event rate (approx. $15-20).
- What is the altitude impact for athletes?
- Denver is the 'Mile High City' at 1,600m. If you are coming from sea level, arrive 2-3 days early to acclimatise and ensure you double your water intake, as the air is very dry.
- Can I bring my own hydration and snacks?
- Athletes are allowed to bring their own nutrition into the athlete recovery area. There are also water stations located throughout the Roxzone.
- Are there spectators allowed?
- Yes, spectators are welcome but require a ticket purchased through the HYROX website. The venue offers excellent viewing platforms for the functional stations.
