In HYROX, pacing is the name of the game. The pacing line shows where you hit the gas, tapped the brakes, or nailed it perfectly—guiding the way to a more balanced and dominant race strategy.
With the RoxCoach Simulation machine, you can see how your predicted finish time evolves as you power through your race. This next-level tech recalculates your estimated finish time after every run and every station. Crushing the sled pull? Gaining ground on the row? Or holding strong in the Wall Balls? RoxCoach tracks it all, giving you the inside scoop on where you shined and where there’s room to level up.
This chart breaks down the splits for every athlete in the division, giving you a clear look at how times are distributed across the pack.
Compare performance to the competition, spotting where they dominated and where there’s room to improve.
You’ll see how they stack up against the Top 10%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and beyond. Outliers are out—so the focus stays on the real competition.
Based on our analysis, here are the focus areas for improvement. The goal is to determine how quickly the athlete could improve on some stations and where is the path of least resistance to improve his time.
The percentile rank is the current position of the athlete compared to the competition. It goes from 0 to 100, where 0 is the best and 100 is the worst. It show the potential improvement for each station. The athlete should focus on the stations with the highest potential improvement and the biggest duration.
A big improvement in the Farmer's carry station will not be as impactful as a small improvement in the wall ball station for instance. Just click on a station to see how easy it will be to improve and how important it is to focus on it during training.

Jacob Desborough displayed a commendable performance in the 2024 Birmingham HYROX race, ranking in the top 25% of all participants and the top 24% of his age category. His overall timing was 01:21:35. Particularly notable was Jacob's total running time of 00:38:23, a full 02:42 faster than the average time, suggesting that he possesses a strong runner profile. His best running lap was clocked at 00:04:20.
An analysis of his pacing indicates that he began slower than average in running 1, but consistently improved his speed, surpassing the average from running 2 onwards. This indicates a measured start and an excellent pacing strategy, conserving energy for the latter part of the race. However, his roxzone time was average, suggesting room for improvement in transition times and overall fitness.
Given Jacob's strong running profile, a strategic approach to the race could be to conserve energy during the initial running segment and use the strength-based exercises as active recovery periods. This would allow him to leverage his running strength in the latter part of the race. Furthermore, focusing on maintaining a steady rhythm during strength-based segments and working on faster transition times could help improve his overall time. Finally, incorporating more strength training into his routine would balance his performance, enhancing his prowess in both running and strength-based segments.
