Tell us your race date and every session lands on a calendar day. Miss a week and Sunday's rebuild absorbs it. The plan bends, the race date doesn't.

Your nearest race

ExCeL London

London · expected March 2027

Roughly 35 km from Moor Park 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.

Straight-line distance from the centre of Moor Park to the venue. The date follows the venue's annual cadence rather than a confirmed listing, so check the official Hyrox calendar before booking.

[ Gyms in Moor Park ]

Where you can train in Moor Park.

Moor Park 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: David Lloyd Clubs, Nuffield Health Fitness & Wellbeing, PureGym. If you already hold one of those memberships, you can start this week without paying anything new.

What a Hyrox build looks like from Moor Park.

Where to train in Moor Park

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

Closest to the centre you have CrossFit Watford, RDX CageFit Gyms and Northwood Cricket Club, the nearest of them about 1 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.

Northwood Cricket Club and David Lloyd Clubs Northwood 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.

David Lloyd Clubs, Nuffield Health Fitness & Wellbeing 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 Moor Park

You are well served for measured running around Moor Park. 8 parkrun courses sit within reach: Holywell King George V Playing Fields parkrun, South Oxhey parkrun and Rickmansworth parkrun are the closest three, Holywell King George V Playing Fields parkrun being about 1.8 km out. Use one as your fixed benchmark and run it in the same conditions each time, or the number tells you nothing.

A Hyrox is eight kilometre runs with a station between each, which means the skill being tested is running on tired legs, not running fresh. Do at least one session a week where the running comes after the hard work rather than before it.

Racing from Moor Park

ExCeL London is roughly 35 km from Moor Park, 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.

Whichever race you enter, the date is what makes a programme a programme. Twelve weeks is the standard build, sixteen if you are starting from very little running, and every session lands on a calendar day rather than a week number.

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.
