HYROX Training Camp in Lanzarote: Run, Sled, SkiErg & Repeat

Club La Santa sits on the north-west coast of Lanzarote at La Santa, a small village about 25 minutes' drive from the airport. The resort is purpose-built for sport: tennis and padel courts, a 50m pool, a lagoon, football pitches, a cycling centre, a dive centre and a gym all on one property. Rooms are apartments rather than hotel rooms, which means most guests cook some of their own meals and eat on site when they want to.

The HYROX programme is the hook here. Sessions run through the week on a published timetable and cover every station in the race: SkiErg, sled push, sled pull, burpee broad jumps, rowing, farmers carry, sandbag lunges and wall balls, plus the 1km run segments between them. The Green Team Race is the full race format — 8 x 1km run plus 8 stations — and is the session most people build towards by the end of the week. HYROX Intro is aimed at complete beginners and walks you through each station before you try it under load.

The PFT is worth doing early in your stay. It's a fixed test: 1000m run (outdoor or treadmill at 2% incline), 50 burpee broad jumps at 90cm, 100 fully extended stationary lunges, 1000m row, 30 hand-release push-ups and 100 wall balls (6kg men, 4kg women). Your time tells you which division to enter — 15–25 minutes points to HYROX PRO, 25–35 to HYROX Open, 30–40 to Doubles and 35–45 to Relay.

What makes this different from a normal fitness holiday is that it's an official HYROX training club, outdoors, at a resort that already has the infrastructure to support a full week of training — physio, sports massage, a shop for kit, and a weekly programme with dozens of other classes if you want to cross-train. You can also use the stay as a base for the cycling, open-water swimming or trail running that Lanzarote is known for.

Because the HYROX classes are part of the resort's weekly programme rather than a closed-group retreat, you'll train alongside other guests of mixed ability — some training for a specific race, some just trying it. If you want company for sessions or a training partner for the Green Team Race, that's easy to find.
