Dated to your race, not week numbers

Your programme counts back from London. Miss a week and Sunday's rebuild absorbs it — the plan bends, the race date doesn't.

Where to run your 1 km repeats

ExCel

London · December 2026

Roughly 54 km from Cranleigh 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.

[ Gyms in Cranleigh ]

Where you can train in Cranleigh.

Cranleigh is not spoilt for choice, which matters less than it sounds. Six of the eight stations need a sled, a rower, a ski erg, kettlebells and a wall, and most of that substitutes cleanly. Your programme is built around what you can actually get to.

What a Hyrox build looks like from Cranleigh.

Where to train in Cranleigh

Cranleigh has 4 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 Cranleigh Leisure Centre, Trevor Abbot Sports Centre and Woodland Fitness Studio, the nearest of them about 0.4 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.

Cranleigh Leisure Centre and Trevor Abbot Sports 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.

Where to run around Cranleigh

Cranleigh parkrun, roughly 0.7 km from the centre of Cranleigh, is your nearest measured 5 km. Free, timed, every Saturday, and the single most useful benchmark you have access to.

Racing from Cranleigh

ExCel is roughly 54 km from Cranleigh, 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 4 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.
