Washington, DC and the greater Philadelphia area are typically among the closest official HYROX destinations, each roughly 1.5 to 2.5 hours away by car, depending on traffic and exact venue. Amtrak and regional trains from Baltimore Penn Station make travel to both DC and Philadelphia straightforward for those who prefer not to drive.
