HYROX Farmers Carry Records — Fastest Times
The Farmers Carry is the sixth station in HYROX, requiring athletes to carry heavy kettlebells or dumbbells for 200 metres. Men carry 2×24kg (Pro) or 2×16kg (Open), while women carry 2×16kg (Pro) or 2×12kg (Open). This station tests grip endurance, core stability, and walking pace under load.
The fastest farmers carry times in HYROX are typically under 1:30 for elite men and under 1:50 for elite women. Grip strength is the primary limiter — athletes who must set down the weights to rest their grip can lose 30–60 seconds. Training with fat-grip implements and timed carries directly improves performance.
The 200m farmers carry is strategically placed after the rowing station, meaning athletes' grip and forearms are already fatigued. The best athletes in HYROX maintain an unbroken carry, walking at a pace of approximately 7–8 km/h while holding the weights.
Consider that many of the fastest single-station times are often achieved at the expense of the overall race time. The true elite racers — those finishing in the top 5 overall at Elite 15 events — typically hit the Farmers Carry in around 1:20 (men) and 1:30 (women).
