Hyrox training in Côte-Saint-Luc,
built around your race.

Where to train in Côte-Saint-Luc

20 gyms and sports centres sit within a few miles of the centre of Côte-Saint-Luc. That is enough to choose on what the floor actually holds rather than on which is nearest.

Closest to the centre you have Aréna Samuel Moskovitch, Terrain Gary Carter and Éconofitness, the nearest of them about 0.9 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.

Aréna Samuel Moskovitch and Terrain Gary Carter 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.

Éconofitness, Montreal West Curling Club and Orangetheory Fitness 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.

Where to run around Côte-Saint-Luc

There is no parkrun close to Côte-Saint-Luc, 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 Côte-Saint-Luc

Your nearest race is VENUE INFORMATION COMING SOON, about 158 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.
