Dorridge hosts a race, which changes how you train for it.

Where to run, near you

Free, measured, timed, every Saturday morning. The simplest way to see whether the programme is working is to run the same 5 km every few weeks and watch the number move.

Your nearest race

NEC Birmingham

Birmingham · October 2026

The race comes to Dorridge. That means you can walk the venue beforehand, and it means the people you train beside will be on the same start list. A programme dated to that weekend is worth more than a generic twelve weeks.

Where you can train in Dorridge.

Dorridge 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: Virgin Active, David Lloyd Clubs, PureGym. If you already hold one of those memberships, you can start this week without paying anything new.

What training in Dorridge actually involves.

Where to train in Dorridge

17 gyms and sports centres sit within a few miles of the centre of Dorridge. That is enough to choose on what the floor actually holds rather than on which is nearest.

Closest to the centre you have Re Coop, MK Reformed and Banatyne Health Club & Spa, the nearest of them about 0.1 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.

Silhillians Sports Club and Conference Centre and Solihull Indoor Bowls 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.

Virgin Active, David Lloyd Clubs and PureGym 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 Dorridge

Brueton parkrun, roughly 3.8 km from the centre of Dorridge, 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.
