A programme written for you
Your level, your equipment, your available days. The quiz takes three minutes and your first week appears before you decide anything.
[ March · East ]
There are 3 gyms and sports centres within reach of the centre of March, Freedom Leisure and Snap Fitness among them, and this programme is written around whichever one you use. March 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.

Log your sessions and the plan recalibrates each Sunday. Strong week, next week pushes harder. Missed sessions, next week rebuilds with more recovery.
Ben Sutherland competes in the HYROX Elite 15 and coaches athletes from their first session to professional level. Your questions get answered in the app.

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.

ExCeL London
London · expected March 2027
Roughly 116 km from March 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.
Straight-line distance from the centre of March to the venue. The date follows the venue's annual cadence rather than a confirmed listing, so check the official Hyrox calendar before booking.
[ Gyms in March ]
March 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.
Chains with a site here: Freedom Leisure, Snap Fitness. If you already hold one of those memberships, you can start this week without paying anything new.

March has 3 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 George Campbell Leisure Centre, Snap Fitness and Alpine Health 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.
Freedom Leisure and Snap Fitness 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.
March parkrun, roughly 0.2 km from the centre of March, 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.
