                     before your start and your timing chip will be tested again. In the

THE ROXZONE:         competition starts with a 1 km run. The run is visibly separated
                     from the workouts by a grid.

                     The YELLOW arch marks the entrance and the BLACK arch marks
                     the exit from the ROXZONE.

WORKOUTS:   The workouts are numbered in columns and must be completed in
                 the chronological order 1 - 8.

                 We follow a “First Come, First Serve” policy within each wave for the
                 workouts - you choose the equipment or the lane that is currently
                 free. There is enough equipment available so that you don't have to
                 wait at any time. Beware of doubles: whilst one partner is working,
                 the other waits at the yellow doubles mat (for the Wall Balls, Ski Erg,
                 Rower workouts) or walks behind the active athlete on the same
                 track (for the Lunges, Burpees, Farmer's Carry, Sled Pull/Push).

                 Please make sure that you do not hinder your fellow competitors.
                 Unsportsmanlike conduct, for example manipulation, attempted
                 deception, disputes as well as disturbing and / or hindering
                 other participants, derogatory comments can be punished by the
                 organiser with suspension, disqualification and exclusion from the
                 competition or legal action. Knee pads, gloves, weight lifting belts,
                 wrist bandages and hydration packs are allowed!

                 The exercise standards from the rulebook must be observed.
                 Single Rulebook
                 Doubles Rulebook

                 A referee is responsible for compliance with the specified workout
                 criteria during the individual workouts. Each referee may impose
                 an individual distance penalty in the event of a rule violation (see
                 rulebook for penalty minutes). The referee does this in coordination
                 with the head judge of the station. In the event of any discrepancies,
                 the Head Judge will consult the Race Director.

                 - Compliance with the prescribed exercises
                 - Compliance with the start and end point
                 - Compliance with movement standards
                 - Compliance with the prescribed number of repetitions or distances
                 - Compliance with the prescribed weight in kilograms

                 Decisions of the referees / judges are - as well as decisions of the
                 organiser - binding and final. As soon as exercises are no longer
                 properly performed or the health of an athlete is in danger, the
                 referees can remove the athlete from the race.
