Outside to inside
The best outdoor race goes indoors
STYREKX was born from years of experience at the edge of sport and experience. Thanks to our friends at Strong Viking, we’re bringing that outdoor spirit inside. No mud, no towering obstacles – but the same raw intensity, now wrapped in a brand-new indoor format. Welcome to STYREKX!
And the crowd goes…
Welcome to the arena

Where it all began
The origin of STYREKX
STYREKX finds its roots in the gym of founder Jan Reijs’ father, where his love for fitness was born in 1982. Years later, after founding Strong Viking, a new vision emerged. Inspired by Old Norse—STYRKR (strength), PHREK (perseverance), and the X (10, for perfection) – STYREKX was born. Bold like its roots. Raw like the Northern Lights. This is the next evolution in fitness racing.
