Auckland Showgrounds - 217 Green Lane West
Auckland · February 2027
Roughly 1060 km from Dunedin in a straight line, so treat it as a weekend away rather than a day out, and book the room when you book the race. Whichever race you enter, the programme is built backwards from that date.
Straight-line distance from the centre of Dunedin to the venue. Check the official Hyrox calendar for final dates.

Where you can train in Dunedin.
Dunedin 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 Dunedin.
Where to train in Dunedin
20 gyms and sports centres sit within a few miles of the centre of Dunedin. That is enough to choose on what the floor actually holds rather than on which is nearest.
Closest to the centre you have Inspiring Women, Sky Fitness and Resistance Climbing, 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.
Resistance Climbing and AmIFit 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 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 Dunedin
There is no parkrun close to Dunedin, 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 Dunedin
Auckland Showgrounds - 217 Green Lane West is the nearest venue at roughly 1060 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.
