Dated to your race, not week numbers

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

Roughly 80 km from Bircotes 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.

Where you can train in Bircotes.

Enough choice in Bircotes to find one that suits the training rather than the other way round. Ring ahead and ask about sled space and a wall you are allowed to throw at, because those two decide more than anything on the membership page.

What a Hyrox build looks like from Bircotes.

Where to train in Bircotes

Bircotes has 5 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 Bircotes Leisure Centre, Harworth & Bircotes Sports & Social Club and Tickhill Cricket Clubhouse, the nearest of them about 0.5 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.

Bircotes Leisure Centre and Harworth & Bircotes Sports & Social 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.

Where to run around Bircotes

There is no parkrun close to Bircotes, so you will need to measure your own loop. Pick something flat you can repeat, run it every three or four weeks under the same conditions, and treat that time as your benchmark.

Racing from Bircotes

Your nearest race is Manchester Central Convention Complex, about 80 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 5 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.

Plenty of people train one town over, whether that is a better gym, a flatter route, or simply the one on the way home from work.
