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 you can train in Earl Shilton.
Earl Shilton 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.
Chains with a site here: Places Leisure, Snap Fitness, David Lloyd Clubs. If you already hold one of those memberships, you can start this week without paying anything new.

What a Hyrox build looks like from Earl Shilton.
Where to train in Earl Shilton
20 gyms and sports centres sit within a few miles of the centre of Earl Shilton. That is enough to choose on what the floor actually holds rather than on which is nearest.
Closest to the centre you have Mallory Park Racing Circuit, Stoney Stanton Lawn Tennis Club and Fields Fitness, the nearest of them about 2.8 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.
Mallory Park Racing Circuit and Stoney Stanton Lawn Tennis Club 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.
Places Leisure, Snap Fitness and David Lloyd Clubs 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 Earl Shilton
Hastings High School parkrun, roughly 5.4 km from the centre of Earl Shilton, is your nearest measured 5 km. Free, timed, every Saturday, and the single most useful benchmark you have access to.
All of them sit within about 7 km of each other, so you can rotate courses without the travel changing, which makes the times comparable.
Racing from Earl Shilton
NEC is roughly 31 km from Earl Shilton, 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 20 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.
