What is XCELREC?
An outdoor hybrid fitness race that blends running with functional workout stations, designed for everyday athletes as well as seasoned competitors.
Race Format
The standard XCELREC format consists of seven rounds, and in each round athletes complete a 1 km run immediately followed by two functional workout stations. Every participant completes a total of 4 km of running, with all runs and stations performed in a fixed order to receive an official finishing time.

Divisions and Standards
XCELREC offers Open and Pro divisions for both male and female athletes, with differences in weights and/or repetitions at the stations while keeping the total running distance identical across all divisions. This structure allows newer athletes and advanced competitors to race on the same course under appropriately scaled standards.
Results and Rankings
Official results are based on total completion time from start to finish, including all runs and stations. Standings are presented from fastest to slowest overall, with additional rankings within age groups and divisions to recognize performance across different categories
Exercise Standards
Slam Ball Burpees
Start standing with feet shoulder-width apart, holding a slam ball at chest level. Lower into a squat and place the slam ball on the ground. Kick your legs back into a plank position and perform a push-up with touching your chest completely on the ground. Jump your feet back toward your hands. Explode upward, lifting the slam ball overhead. Slam the ball down in front of you to complete the movement and repeat.
Max Push
Vertical bag, measuring 1.5 feet in diameter and 5 feet in height, suspended securely from above. The bag is weighted according to category to match your strength level. Stand at the designated marker next to the bag, feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent for stability. Place both hands firmly on the bag and push it forward with maximum force towards the target set 3 feet away. Each push must make contact with the target, and you must remain within the marked box throughout the attempt.
Cube Flip
The cube flip involves a rectangular box measuring 4 feet in length and 1.5 feet in height. The weight inside the cube varies according to the category and is securely enclosed within cushions and a leather cover for protection. To perform the flip, place the cube on the starting line with one end aligned on the line and the opposite end facing you. Stand with both feet beside the box. Position both hands underneath the cube, maintaining a deadlift posture with a straight back.
