TORONTO, June 26, 2024 /CNW/ – HYROX, the World Series of Fitness Racing, today announced GoodLife Fitness as its official title sponsor for HYROX Toronto 2024, the first ever HYROX indoor fitness race in Canada happening October 5 and 6, 2024 at Enercare Centre. GoodLife’s sponsorship unlocks an extra date for the previously sold-out competition, creating capacity for 9,000 competitors and 10,000+ spectators.

GoodLife members and employees will have special access to the HYROX Toronto events with a member lounge and other promotional programs. GoodLife will sponsor athlete communications and pre-race check-in, as well as event rankings, individual results and finisher certificates.

“As Canada’s largest fitness club chain, GoodLife offers the widest selection of training programs, amenities and equipment to train for HYROX, including strength, functional, and cardio equipment, Turf Zones for sled pushes, REGYMEN classes and more,” said Tammy Brazier, senior vice president of marketing, partnerships & external relations with GoodLife Fitness.  “Our Associates and Members are already training for HYROX, so it was a huge opportunity to be able to bring the event to Canada and open the door for more competitors and spectators to join this mass participation fitness event. HYROX is truly an event for all ages and abilities.”

HYROX chose to work with Canada’s largest fitness chain for its first Canadian event because of GoodLife’s network of well-equipped clubs and its huge member base across Canada.
