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.

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.

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.

NEC

Birmingham · October 2026

Roughly 38 km from Coalville 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 Coalville.

Enough choice in Coalville 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.

What a Hyrox build looks like from Coalville.

Where to train in Coalville

10 gyms and sports centres sit within a few miles of the centre of Coalville. That is enough to choose on what the floor actually holds rather than on which is nearest.

Closest to the centre you have PureGym, Whitwick and Coalville Leisure Centre and Hermitage Leisure Centre, the nearest of them about 0.2 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.

Whitwick and Coalville Leisure Centre and Hermitage Leisure 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.

Where to run around Coalville

Sence Valley Forest Park parkrun, roughly 3.9 km from the centre of Coalville, is your nearest measured 5 km. Free, timed, every Saturday, and the single most useful benchmark you have access to.

They spread from roughly 4 km out to 9 km, so pick one as the benchmark rather than running whichever is convenient — a different course is a different number.

Racing from Coalville

NEC is roughly 38 km from Coalville, 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 10 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.
