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.

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
OVO Hydro
Glasgow · November 2026
Roughly 100 km from North Berwick 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.

[ Gyms in North Berwick ]
North Berwick is not spoilt for choice, which matters less than it sounds. Six of the eight stations need a sled, a rower, a ski erg, kettlebells and a wall, and most of that substitutes cleanly. Your programme is built around what you can actually get to.

[ Training in North Berwick ]
Training options in North Berwick are thin on the ground, which matters far less than it sounds. Most of a Hyrox build is running, carrying and squatting, and almost all of it substitutes.
North Berwick Sports Centre is the closest, roughly 0.6 km from the centre. Worth ringing to ask whether there is floor space for a sled and a wall you can throw a ball at, because those two shape the programme more than anything on the price list.
North Berwick Sports Centre is listed as a sports centre rather than a gym. Multi-use sites are usually where the floor space is, which tends to be where the sled and carry work ends up happening.
Whitekirk Hill parkrun, roughly 5.6 km from the centre of North Berwick, is your nearest measured 5 km. Free, timed, every Saturday, and the single most useful benchmark you have access to.
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.
Your nearest race is OVO Hydro, about 100 km away. Far enough that an early wave means going the night before, which is worth budgeting for at the point you enter rather than the week before.
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.
