Where you can train in Kirkby in Ashfield.
Kirkby in Ashfield 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 Kirkby in Ashfield.
Where to train in Kirkby in Ashfield
20 gyms and sports centres sit within a few miles of the centre of Kirkby in Ashfield. That is enough to choose on what the floor actually holds rather than on which is nearest.
Closest to the centre you have Peak Physique, Slimming world and My Gym Space, 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.
Lammas Leisure Centre and Huthwaite Leisure 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.
Anytime Fitness and PureGym 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 Kirkby in Ashfield
You are well served for measured running around Kirkby in Ashfield. 3 parkrun courses sit within reach: Brierley Forest parkrun, Mansfield parkrun and Bestwood Village parkrun are the closest three, Brierley Forest parkrun being about 4.9 km out. Use one as your fixed benchmark and run it in the same conditions each time, or the number tells you nothing.
All of them sit within about 10 km of each other, so you can rotate courses without the travel changing, which makes the times comparable.
Racing from Kirkby in Ashfield
Your nearest race is NEC, about 79 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.
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.
