Programming with a race at the end of it.
Dated to your race, not week numbers
Your programme counts back from Birmingham. Miss a week and Sunday's rebuild absorbs it — the plan bends, the race date doesn't.
An Elite 15 athlete behind the programming
Ben races in the HYROX Elite 15 Doubles with his brother Harry. The programming you follow is the structure he uses, scaled to your level.

NEC
Birmingham · October 2026
Roughly 60 km from Brackley 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 Brackley.
Enough choice in Brackley 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 Brackley.
Where to train in Brackley
Brackley has 9 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 Active Fitness Club, Brackley Leisure Centre and Brackley And District Bowling Club, the nearest of them about 0.6 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.
Brackley Leisure Centre and Brackley And District Bowling 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 Brackley
There is no parkrun close to Brackley, 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 Brackley
NEC is roughly 60 km from Brackley, 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.
Between the race and the 9 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.
