Built backwards from race day
Eight stations, eight 1-km runs. Sled push and pull with explicit progression, wall balls scaled to your bodyweight, run intervals that match the race.
[ Bradwell · East ]
There are 5 gyms and sports centres within reach of the centre of Bradwell, PureGym among them, and this programme is written around whichever one you use. Your nearest race is ExCeL London, roughly 165 km away, and every session is dated backwards from it. Built by HYROX Elite 15 athlete Ben Sutherland. See your Week 1 before you decide anything.

Tell us your race date and every session lands on a calendar day. Miss a week and Sunday's rebuild absorbs it. The plan bends, the race date doesn't.
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.

Where to run your 1 km repeats
A Hyrox is eight 1 km runs with a station between each. Running them on flat, measured, repeatable ground is worth more than any single session you will do indoors. These are the closest measured 5 km courses to you.

Your nearest race
ExCeL London
London · expected March 2027
Roughly 165 km from Bradwell in a straight line. Far enough that an early wave usually means travelling the night before. Whichever race you enter, the programme is built backwards from that date.
Straight-line distance from the centre of Bradwell to the venue. The date follows the venue's annual cadence rather than a confirmed listing, so check the official Hyrox calendar before booking.
[ Gyms in Bradwell ]
Enough choice in Bradwell 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.
Chains with a site here: PureGym. If you already hold one of those memberships, you can start this week without paying anything new.

Bradwell 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 Gorleston Tennis Club, Riverside Pilates and Wellness Centre and BWell Health Club, the nearest of them about 2.1 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.
Gorleston Tennis Club and Marina Centre 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.
PureGym has a site 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.
Gorleston Cliffs parkrun, roughly 2.2 km from the centre of Bradwell, is your nearest measured 5 km. Free, timed, every Saturday, and the single most useful benchmark you have access to.
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.
ExCeL London is the nearest venue at roughly 165 km, so racing means a weekend away. Enter early, book the room at the same time, and treat the travel as part of the plan rather than an afterthought.
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.
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.
