Reigning HYROX World Champion Hunter McIntyre has rewritten history. On March 18, 2023, at HYROX Barcelona, McIntyre competed in the pro division against some of the sport’s top competition worldwide. Entering the event, McIntyre was the all-time world record holder, thanks to his time of 55:09 from the 2022 HYROX Dallas contest.
However, McIntyre’s previous self was no match for his more conditioned current-day self-counterpart. McIntyre scorched his previous all-time world record by over a minute in Barcelona, setting the new fastest HYROX time ever at 54:07.

Competing is more of an art than a job. I’m currently painting my best work yet
In an Instagram post filming a Q&A published to McIntyre’s page, he said he’s done the math to determine the fastest possible time he could theoretically run an HYROX race in. His issue, he believes, is that he still weighs too much. However, if he can drop to the target weight of 192 pounds, he feels running a 52-minute HYROX event is possible.
