[ Gyms in Chalfont Saint Peter ]
Chalfont Saint Peter 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.

20 gyms and sports centres sit within a few miles of the centre of Chalfont Saint Peter. That is enough to choose on what the floor actually holds rather than on which is nearest.
Closest to the centre you have Core, Chalfont Leisure Centre and Gerrards Cross Lawn Tennis Club, 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.
Chalfont Leisure Centre and Gerrards Cross Lawn 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.
Anytime Fitness, Everyone Active and David Lloyd Clubs have sites 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.
You are well served for measured running around Chalfont Saint Peter. 3 parkrun courses sit within reach: Rickmansworth parkrun, Church Mead parkrun and Black Park parkrun are the closest three, Rickmansworth parkrun being about 6.1 km out. Use one as your fixed benchmark and run it in the same conditions each time, or the number tells you nothing.
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 roughly 42 km from Chalfont Saint Peter, 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.
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.
