Give every training block a finish line.

Members train with more purpose when there is a date to train for. Run a Sim at the end of each block and it becomes a checkpoint in the programme, not a one-off social event.

  1. TrainMembers follow your programme towards a date.
  2. SimA full simulation, run like race day.
  3. Measure progressEveryone leaves with a time and a place.
  4. Set the next goalThat result becomes the time to beat.
  5. Train againInto the next block, with a reason to.

Purpose creates consistency

People keep showing up when they are training for something. A date in the diary gives every session a reason.

Sims create milestones

A Sim closes a training block with a real, timed effort, the closest thing to race day your gym can run.

Results create momentum

A finish time is a fact. Members see how far they have come and what to work on next.

The next one starts from the last

A new competition fills in your venue, contacts and settings from your previous one, and athletes you have hosted already have accounts.

HYROX Sim setup, waves and scoring, built in.

The three jobs a Sim depends on, from the first entry to the published result.

01

HYROX Sim competition setup

Choose Hybrid Simulation when you create the competition: one race shared by every division, organised in start waves instead of heats, with a leaderboard built for it. Then add the divisions your members recognise.

Solo, doubles and relay divisions, men's, women's and mixed, Open and Pro
A price and a capacity for every division, and a total for the day
Doubles and relay teams that athletes build by inviting their partners
Sales stop on their own when a division is full
02

Athlete start and wave management

Set your first start, your interval and your lanes, and the waves wizard builds the day. Athletes book a wave with space when they sign up, and know exactly where to be and when.

A capacity, pen time and start time for every wave
Waves held for one division, so loads never get mixed up
Athletes choose their own wave, or you place them

Score Calculator

Judges enter each athlete's start and finish time and the Score Calculator works out the elapsed time, ranked within each division. Every result is calculated the same way, so the leaderboard means something next time too.

Start and finish times turned into elapsed results
Or splits for every run and station, added up for you
A private master board to check results before anyone sees them
Publish the results when they are checked, live in the app

What your members get from it.

Everything they need is in the Team Aretas app, free on iOS and Android, from the day they enter to the result they take into the next block.

  1. Before

    A member signs up for the Sim, books a wave and, for doubles or relay, invites their partner or teammates. Their wave, start time and ticket sit at the top of the app's home screen.

  2. On the day

    A reminder before their wave starts, any change the moment you save it, and the leaderboard live in their pocket.

  3. After

    Their result stays on their athlete profile: a time and a place to beat at the next Sim.

How to run a HYROX Sim

Six steps from a date in the diary to the result that sets the next goal. The complete guide covers each one in detail.

  1. Set the date and purpose

    Put the Sim at the end of a training block and give members a clear goal.

  2. Plan your space and equipment

    Let your available lanes and scarcest equipment determine capacity.

  3. Choose divisions and open registration

    Offer the solo, doubles and relay divisions your club can run well.

  4. Build the start waves

    Set wave capacity, start intervals and pen times so athletes know where to be.

  5. Staff, judge and score the Sim

    Brief the team, record accurate times and check results before publication.

  6. Publish results and set the next goal

    Give every member a result to learn from and a time to beat next time.

Questions clubs ask first.

How long does it take to set up a HYROX Sim?

Most of it is the decisions you would make anyway: your divisions, prices, capacity and wave times. Choose Hybrid Simulation when you create the competition, add a category for each division, and the waves wizard builds your start times from your first start, your interval and your lanes. You can build everything before you pay, and publish when it is ready.

Can athletes choose their own start wave?

Yes. Switch on athlete wave choice and athletes book a wave with space when they sign up, from the waves you have opened to their division. Every wave has its own capacity, pen time and start time, and you can move anyone yourself afterwards.

Can we run solo, doubles and relay divisions in one Sim?

Yes. Each division is its own category with its own price, capacity and leaderboard. Doubles and relay entries are teams, and athletes build them themselves by inviting their partners.

How are HYROX Sim results calculated?

Judges enter each athlete's start and finish time and the Score Calculator works out the elapsed time. If you record a split for every run and station instead, the splits add up to the total for you. Results rank within each division and appear on the live leaderboard when you publish them.

What do athletes receive?

Their wave and start time in the Team Aretas app and by email, reminders before their wave starts, any schedule change the moment you save it, the live leaderboard on the day, and their result on their athlete profile afterwards.

What does the first competition cost?

£60 + VAT on the First Competition plan, for organisers running their first competition on Team Aretas. It covers registration, divisions, start waves, check-in, scoring, leaderboards and the athlete app. Team Aretas takes no fee per athlete, and Stripe's card-processing charge is added at checkout.

What happens after our first Sim?

Run the next one on the Single Competition plan at £360 + VAT. If you run a Sim every training block, the Monthly plan at £60 + VAT a month, with a 12-month commitment, covers unlimited competitions.

Is Team Aretas connected to HYROX?

No. Team Aretas is independent competition software and is not affiliated with or endorsed by HYROX. HYROX is a registered trademark of HYROX World GmbH, and a HYROX Sim run on Team Aretas is an independently organised event, not an official HYROX race.
