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.

Where you can train in Rowlands Gill.
Rowlands Gill 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.

Where to train in Rowlands Gill
20 gyms and sports centres sit within a few miles of the centre of Rowlands Gill. That is enough to choose on what the floor actually holds rather than on which is nearest.
Closest to the centre you have Evolve, Lintz Cricket Club and Body Blitz Boot Camp, the nearest of them about 0 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.
Lintz Cricket Club and Body Blitz Boot Camp 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 Rowlands Gill
You are well served for measured running around Rowlands Gill. 7 parkrun courses sit within reach: Chopwell Wood parkrun, Oakey Park parkrun and Denton Dene parkrun are the closest three, Chopwell Wood parkrun being about 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 Rowlands Gill
Manchester Central Convention Complex is the nearest venue at roughly 164 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 7 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.
