Glasgow · November 2026
Roughly 97 km from Galashiels 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 Galashiels.
Enough choice in Galashiels 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.

What training in Galashiels actually involves.
Where to train in Galashiels
10 gyms and sports centres sit within a few miles of the centre of Galashiels. That is enough to choose on what the floor actually holds rather than on which is nearest.
Closest to the centre you have PureGym, Queens Leisure Centre and TriFitness, the nearest of them about 0.3 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.
Tweedbank Outdoor Sports Complex and Tweedbank Sports Complex 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.
PureGym and Scottish Borders Council 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 Galashiels
There is no parkrun close to Galashiels, 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.

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.
