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.

Your nearest race
Manchester Central Convention Complex
Manchester · January 2027
Roughly 171 km from Newburn in a straight line. Far enough that an early wave usually means travelling the night before. Whichever race you enter, the programme is built backwards from that date.

Where you can train in Newburn.
Newburn 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: 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 Newburn.
Where to train in Newburn
20 gyms and sports centres sit within a few miles of the centre of Newburn. That is enough to choose on what the floor actually holds rather than on which is nearest.
Closest to the centre you have Newburn Leisure Centre, Tyne Rowing Club and Newburn Water Sports Centre, the nearest of them about 0.5 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.
Newburn Leisure Centre and Tyne Rowing 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.
TeamSport Go Karting has a site 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 Newburn
You are well served for measured running around Newburn. 6 parkrun courses sit within reach: Denton Dene parkrun, Leazes parkrun and Prudhoe Riverside parkrun are the closest three, Denton Dene parkrun being about 3.3 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 10 km, so pick one as the benchmark rather than running whichever is convenient — a different course is a different number.
Racing from Newburn
Manchester Central Convention Complex is the nearest venue at roughly 171 km, so racing means a weekend away. Enter early, book the room at the same time, and treat the travel as part of the plan rather than an afterthought.
With the race that far out, the 6 parkruns nearby do more work than usual — it is the only regular measured effort you will get without a train ticket, so it carries the whole benchmarking job.

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.
