Where you can train in Passage West.
Passage West 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: Ballinure GAA Club, Saint Michael's GAA Club, Ringmahon Rangers AFC. If you already hold one of those memberships, you can start this week without paying anything new.

What a Hyrox build looks like from Passage West.
Where to train in Passage West
20 gyms and sports centres sit within a few miles of the centre of Passage West. That is enough to choose on what the floor actually holds rather than on which is nearest.
Closest to the centre you have One Arena Passage, Passage West GAA and Passage AFC, the nearest of them about 0.8 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.
Passage West GAA and Passage AFC 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.
Ballinure GAA Club, Saint Michael's GAA Club and Ringmahon Rangers AFC 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 Passage West
There is no parkrun close to Passage West, so you will need to measure your own loop. Pick something flat you can repeat, run it every three or four weeks under the same conditions, and treat that time as your benchmark.
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 Passage West
Royal Dublin Society (RDS) is the nearest venue at roughly 216 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.
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.
