About this Event
HOW FAST CAN YOU SKI 1,000 METERS?
Join BFT Lincoln, a HYROX Training Club and Concept2 partner, November 12–15, 2026, for the Concept2 SkiErg World Sprints, a worldwide competition that challenges athletes to complete 1,000 meters on the SkiErg as fast as possible.
Whether you're a seasoned HYROX athlete, a regular gym-goer, or trying a SkiErg for the first time, you're invited to compete.
It's FREE, open to everyone, and you don't need to be a BFT member!

We'll help you get set up on the Concept2 SkiErg, and a BFT Lincoln team member will witness and record your official finish time.
