Lyon hosts a race, which changes how you train for it.
HYROX LYON: dates, venue and when to start →Your nearest race
Bd de l'Europe
Lyon · May 2027
The race comes to Lyon. 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.
Check the official Hyrox calendar for final dates.

Where you can train in Lyon.
Lyon 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: L'Appart Fitness, Ville de Lyon, Basic-Fit. If you already hold one of those memberships, you can start this week without paying anything new.

What training in Lyon actually involves.
Where to train in Lyon
20 gyms and sports centres sit within a few miles of the centre of Lyon. That is enough to choose on what the floor actually holds rather than on which is nearest.
Closest to the centre you have La bulle yoga, L'Appart Fitness and Fit by So, the nearest of them about 0.2 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.
IKC and Centre Nautique Tony Bertrand 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.
L'Appart Fitness, Ville de Lyon and Basic-Fit 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 Lyon
There is no parkrun close to Lyon, 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.
