The 2023 HYROX European Championships occurred on Jan. 22, 2023, in Maastricht, Netherlands. It is one of the three races the elite division’s season is structured around — the other two are the 2023 North American Championships scheduled for Feb. 11, 2023, in Chicago, IL, and the 2023 World Championships.
Each of these elite races is an invite-only competition. Those invites are earned by athletes who score one of the 15 fastest races times across the season — invites are passed to the next fastest qualifying time if an invite is declined.
The first of those three championships saw Alexander Roncevic and Lauren Weeks win their respective divisions.

In the caption of Weeks’ Instagram post recapping her performance at the 2023 European Championships, she wrote, “I far exceeded my own expectations of myself. I made changes and adjustments to my training starting just before the LA race. I’ve seen some unexpected progress in some areas, yet still many areas that can use work.”
We’ll see if she can carry that momentum to the 2023 North American Championships in Chicago, IL, on Feb. 11, 2023.
