5KX The HYBRID 5K : Palm Beach, October 3, 2026
The event on October 3, 2026 in Palm Beach combines run intervals with heavy strength tests rather than endurance-style high-rep stations. The running portion comprises six 800 m interval runs that together total 5K of running, with an 800 m run to start, runs between strength stations, and an 800 m run to finish.
Five strength stations are placed between the runs. Stations use heavy barbell work, free weights, sandbags, and sleds, and exercises are performed in low-rep ranges to assess maximal strength rather than endurance.
The event offers divisional options labeled HVY, MID, and LITE to accommodate different strength levels. Registration is handled through RunSignUp as noted by the organizer. Illustrative images on the event site depict the race concept and the types of stations used.
Descriptions focus on the structure and format: alternating running intervals and heavy strength efforts, fixed station count, and division options. The format places emphasis on short running segments combined with low-rep, high-load strength tasks. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
