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

Your nearest race: HYROX Cardiff →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.

Your nearest race
Principality Stadium
Cardiff · May 2027
Roughly 37 km from Minehead 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.

[ Gyms in Minehead ]
Where you can train in Minehead.
Enough choice in Minehead to find one that suits the training rather than the other way round. Ring ahead and ask about sled space and a wall you are allowed to throw at, because those two decide more than anything on the membership page.

What a Hyrox build looks like from Minehead.
Where to train in Minehead
Minehead has 7 places to train within reach. Not a wide field, and it means the sensible move is to build the programme around what one or two of them actually have rather than hunting for a perfect fit.
Closest to the centre you have Minehead Bowling Club, Reks Fitness Centre and Minehead Sailing And Watersports Club, 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.
Minehead Bowling Club and Minehead Sailing And Watersports 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.
Where to run around Minehead
Minehead parkrun, roughly 1 km from the centre of Minehead, is your nearest measured 5 km. Free, timed, every Saturday, and the single most useful benchmark you have access to.
Racing from Minehead
Principality Stadium is roughly 37 km from Minehead, 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 7 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.
