Coming to UNA Watch
HybridX Race is the HYROX-format race timer for UNA Watch. Press once at every transition, and every run and every station is timed as its own lap, with your heart rate — then exported to Strava through the UNA app.
A race, fast-forwarded. Illustrative times.
The race, as it is scored
Eight 1 km runs and eight stations, one after another. The watch knows the order, so you don’t have to: race it in full or train either half, shorten the runs to anything from 100 m for a sim, and time your Roxzone transitions separately if you want to. Try it:

Strava
Most watches save a race as one long workout. HybridX Race saves it as sixteen laps, each run and each station in order with its own time, distance and heart rate, and it syncs to Strava through the UNA app — so you can see exactly where the time went.
The split
Press at the transition. The split lands the instant you press, the watch shows what you just finished, then gets out of the way. A buzz tells you run or station without looking.
Split lock
After every split the button locks for 1 to 10 seconds — your choice, set on the watch or from the UNA app on your phone. Sweaty hands on a sled handle press twice; the second press is quietly ignored.
Undo
Pressed on the way into the Roxzone instead of out? Undo it — the last split, or even the finish. The times either side are put back exactly as they were, as if you never pressed.
Heart rate
From the wrist or a chest strap, lap by lap — so afterwards you can see what the sleds cost you, separately from the runs.
Safety net
Lying on the floor after the wall balls? It saves your race by itself after a minute. Leave the app mid-race and the clock keeps running; come back within five minutes and carry on.
On the wrist
01Start
Start race is already under your thumb. No sign-in, no GPS lock.

03Run
Blue for a run. This lap’s time big, race time beneath, next station named.
04Station
Yellow for a station. Heart rate and zone, live from the wrist.
05Split
Confirms what just ended and its time, then gets out of the way.
06Summary
Where the time went, before you have found your phone.

Why UNA Watch
UNA Watch is the modular GPS sports watch from Scotland: a watch you can repair and upgrade rather than replace, open to apps made for the sport you actually do. HybridX Race is made for it from the ground up — a watch that lasts as long as your training does, running an app that understands your race.
From your wrist to your coach
Every lap knows whether it was a run, a station or a Roxzone. Next, we’re joining that up with HybridX coaching: your race comes back to your plan, and your targets go out to your wrist. Here’s what’s coming.
