Roughly 111 km from Dunbar 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 Dunbar ]

Where you can train in Dunbar.

Dunbar 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.

What training in Dunbar actually involves.

Where to train in Dunbar

Training options in Dunbar 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.

Closest to the centre you have Core and Dunbar Leisure Pool, 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.

Dunbar Leisure Pool 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.

Where to run around Dunbar

Lochend Woods parkrun, roughly 0.6 km from the centre of Dunbar, 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.

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.
