Built backwards from race day

Eight stations, eight 1-km runs. Sled push and pull with explicit progression, wall balls scaled to your bodyweight, run intervals that match the race.

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.

HYROX London ExCel: dates, venue and when to start

Where to run your 1 km repeats

A Hyrox is eight 1 km runs with a station between each. Running them on flat, measured, repeatable ground is worth more than any single session you will do indoors. These are the closest measured 5 km courses to you.

Where you can train in Lancaster Gate.

Lancaster Gate 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 Lancaster Gate.

Where to train in Lancaster Gate

20 gyms and sports centres sit within a few miles of the centre of Lancaster Gate. That is enough to choose on what the floor actually holds rather than on which is nearest.

Closest to the centre you have Queens Skate Dine Bowl, Barry's and 1Rebel Bayswater, the nearest of them about 0.3 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.

Queens Skate Dine Bowl and Porchester 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 Lancaster Gate

Wormwood Scrubs parkrun, roughly 3.8 km from the centre of Lancaster Gate, 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 4 km of each other, so you can rotate courses without the travel changing, which makes the times comparable.

Racing from Lancaster Gate

Lancaster Gate hosts a race, which is a bigger advantage than most people use. You can walk the venue, you will train alongside people on the same start list, and you have no travel to plan on the morning.

Having both a race and 2 measured 5 km courses on the doorstep is the combination that makes a season easy to plan: benchmark locally through the build, then race without travelling.
