Where you can train in Dawlish.
Dawlish 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 Dawlish.
Where to train in Dawlish
17 gyms and sports centres sit within a few miles of the centre of Dawlish. That is enough to choose on what the floor actually holds rather than on which is nearest.
Closest to the centre you have Dawlish Leisure Centre, Grand Prix Go Karts and Broadmeadow Sports Centre, the nearest of them about 0.8 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.
Dawlish Leisure Centre and Grand Prix Go Karts 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 Dawlish
Teignmouth Promenade parkrun, roughly 4.6 km from the centre of Dawlish, is your nearest measured 5 km. Free, timed, every Saturday, and the single most useful benchmark you have access to.
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 Dawlish
NEC Birmingham is the nearest venue at roughly 240 km, so racing means a weekend away. Enter early, book the room at the same time, and treat the travel as part of the plan rather than an afterthought.
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.
