Dated to your race, not week numbers

Your programme counts back from Cardiff. Miss a week and Sunday's rebuild absorbs it — the plan bends, the race date doesn't.

Cardiff · May 2027

Roughly 88 km from Bideford in a straight line, which for most people is an early train rather than a hotel. Whichever race you enter, the programme is built backwards from that date.

[ Gyms in Bideford ]

Where you can train in Bideford.

Bideford is not spoilt for choice, which matters less than it sounds. Six of the eight stations need a sled, a rower, a ski erg, kettlebells and a wall, and most of that substitutes cleanly. Your programme is built around what you can actually get to.

What a Hyrox build looks like from Bideford.

Where to train in Bideford

Bideford has 4 places to train within reach. Not a wide field, and it means the sensible move is to build the programme around what one or two of them actually have rather than hunting for a perfect fit.

Closest to the centre you have Quay Movement, Centenary Hall and Gymnasium, the nearest of them about 0.3 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.

Centenary Hall and Gymnasium 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.

Where to run around Bideford

Bideford parkrun, roughly 0.8 km from the centre of Bideford, is your nearest measured 5 km. Free, timed, every Saturday, and the single most useful benchmark you have access to.

Racing from Bideford

Your nearest race is Principality Stadium, about 88 km away. Far enough that an early wave means going the night before, which is worth budgeting for at the point you enter rather than the week before.

Between the race and the 4 places to train listed here, the constraint is rarely equipment. It is the calendar, which is why the programme is dated to a day rather than numbered by week.
