Dated to your race, not week numbers
Your programme counts back from Manchester. Miss a week and Sunday's rebuild absorbs it — the plan bends, the race date doesn't.

The ground you actually train on in Liverpool.
Liverpool athletes typically travel to Manchester Central for the nearest UK race weekend. Local Hyrox classes are spread across the city centre and Wirral; the M62 corridor connects to wider Merseyside training partners.
Your nearest race: HYROX Manchester →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.

Manchester Central Convention Complex
Manchester · January 2027
Roughly 45 km from Liverpool in a straight line, which for most people is an early train rather than a hotel. Whichever race you enter, the programme is built backwards from that date.

Where you can train in Liverpool.
Liverpool 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: Anytime Fitness, Nuffield Health Fitness & Wellbeing, TeamSport Go Karting. If you already hold one of those memberships, you can start this week without paying anything new.

What a Hyrox build looks like from Liverpool.
Where to train in Liverpool
20 gyms and sports centres sit within a few miles of the centre of Liverpool. That is enough to choose on what the floor actually holds rather than on which is nearest.
Closest to the centre you have Liverpool Tennis Centre, Anytime Fitness and LC Sports in Liverpool College, the nearest of them about 0.7 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.
Liverpool Tennis Centre and LC Sports in Liverpool College 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, Nuffield Health Fitness & Wellbeing and TeamSport Go Karting 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 Liverpool
You are well served for measured running around Liverpool. 4 parkrun courses sit within reach: Princes parkrun, Liverpool, Croxteth Hall parkrun and Knowsley parkrun are the closest three, Princes parkrun, Liverpool being about 2.8 km out. Use one as your fixed benchmark and run it in the same conditions each time, or the number tells you nothing.
They spread from roughly 3 km out to 9 km, so pick one as the benchmark rather than running whichever is convenient — a different course is a different number.
Racing from Liverpool
Manchester Central Convention Complex is roughly 45 km from Liverpool, 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.
[ Near Liverpool ]
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.
