Where you can train in Ashby-de-la-Zouch.
Ashby-de-la-Zouch has plenty of choice, which means you can be picky. The thing to look for is not a Hyrox sticker on the door, it is a sled lane long enough to push on, a spare wall for wall balls, and a rower nobody queues for at 6pm.

What a Hyrox build looks like from Ashby-de-la-Zouch.
Where to train in Ashby-de-la-Zouch
16 gyms and sports centres sit within a few miles of the centre of Ashby-de-la-Zouch. That is enough to choose on what the floor actually holds rather than on which is nearest.
Closest to the centre you have Restore Health and Fitness, Oakthorpe Community Leisure Centre and Ravenstone Football Club, the nearest of them about 0.2 km out. Ring before you join and ask two questions: is there floor space to push a sled, and can you throw a ball at a wall. Those answers decide more than any membership tier.
Oakthorpe Community Leisure Centre and Ravenstone Football Club are listed as sports centres rather than gyms. Multi-use sites are usually where the floor space is, which tends to be where the sled and carry work ends up happening.
Snap Fitness and PureGym have sites here, so an existing membership may already cover you. If you are joining from scratch, a rolling monthly contract is worth the few extra pounds while you work out which sessions you actually turn up for.
Where to run around Ashby-de-la-Zouch
You are well served for measured running around Ashby-de-la-Zouch. 3 parkrun courses sit within reach: Conkers parkrun, Sence Valley Forest Park parkrun and Coronation Park parkrun are the closest three, Conkers parkrun being about 4.8 km out. Use one as your fixed benchmark and run it in the same conditions each time, or the number tells you nothing.
A Hyrox is eight kilometre runs with a station between each, which means the skill being tested is running on tired legs, not running fresh. Do at least one session a week where the running comes after the hard work rather than before it.
Racing from Ashby-de-la-Zouch
NEC Birmingham is roughly 37 km from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, close enough to be a normal morning rather than a trip. That is the one to build towards for a first race: no hotel, no unfamiliar bed, no early train.
Whichever race you enter, the date is what makes a programme a programme. Twelve weeks is the standard build, sixteen if you are starting from very little running, and every session lands on a calendar day rather than a week number.
