Dated to your race, not week numbers
Your programme counts back from Cardiff. Miss a week and Sunday's rebuild absorbs it — the plan bends, the race date doesn't.

Your nearest race
Principality Stadium
Cardiff · May 2027
Roughly 164 km from Saint Blazey 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 Saint Blazey.
Enough choice in Saint Blazey to find one that suits the training rather than the other way round. Ring ahead and ask about sled space and a wall you are allowed to throw at, because those two decide more than anything on the membership page.
Chains with a site here: Better, Snap Fitness. If you already hold one of those memberships, you can start this week without paying anything new.

What a Hyrox build looks like from Saint Blazey.
Where to train in Saint Blazey
Saint Blazey has 6 places to train within reach. Not a wide field, and it means the sensible move is to build the programme around what one or two of them actually have rather than hunting for a perfect fit.
Closest to the centre you have Par Sports Club, Polkyth Leisure Centre and Fitness Suite, the nearest of them about 1.6 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.
Par Sports Club and Polkyth Leisure Centre 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.
Better and Snap Fitness 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 Saint Blazey
Eden Project parkrun, roughly 1.8 km from the centre of Saint Blazey, is your nearest measured 5 km. Free, timed, every Saturday, and the single most useful benchmark you have access to.
They spread from roughly 2 km out to 9 km, so pick one as the benchmark rather than running whichever is convenient — a different course is a different number.
Racing from Saint Blazey
Principality Stadium 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 2 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.
