Where you can train in Cavan.
Cavan 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 Cavan.
Where to train in Cavan
20 gyms and sports centres sit within a few miles of the centre of Cavan. That is enough to choose on what the floor actually holds rather than on which is nearest.
Closest to the centre you have Align Yoga, C.Y.M.S. St. Felims Branch and Synergy, the nearest of them about 0 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.
C.Y.M.S. St. Felims Branch and Cavan Tennis 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 Cavan
There is no parkrun close to Cavan, 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.
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 Cavan
Your nearest race is Royal Dublin Society (RDS), about 105 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.
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.
