There are 7 gyms and sports centres within reach of the centre of Maesteg, and this programme is written around whichever one you use. Maesteg parkrun is your nearest measured 5 km, which is how you will know it is working. Online personal training from HYROX Elite 15 athlete Ben Sutherland, rebuilt every Sunday from what you logged.

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.

Roughly 162 km from Maesteg 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 Maesteg ]
Enough choice in Maesteg 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.

Maesteg has 7 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 Maesteg Swimming Pool, Maesteg Sports Centre and Maesteg Squash Sports and Social Club, 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.
Maesteg Swimming Pool and Maesteg Sports 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.
Maesteg parkrun, roughly 0.5 km from the centre of Maesteg, 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.
