The race comes to New Cross. 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.

Straight-line distance from the centre of New Cross to the venue. The date follows the venue's annual cadence rather than a confirmed listing, so check the official Hyrox calendar before booking.

Where you can train in New Cross.

New Cross 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.

What training in New Cross actually involves.

Where to train in New Cross

20 gyms and sports centres sit within a few miles of the centre of New Cross. That is enough to choose on what the floor actually holds rather than on which is nearest.

Closest to the centre you have Iyengar Yoga Institute South London, BALDR CrossFit and Commando Temple, the nearest of them about 0.7 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.

Shades Snooker & Pool Club and Wavelengths 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.

Where to run around New Cross

You are well served for measured running around New Cross. 8 parkrun courses sit within reach: Hilly Fields parkrun, Southwark parkrun and Peckham Rye parkrun are the closest three, Hilly Fields parkrun being about 1.9 km out. Use one as your fixed benchmark and run it in the same conditions each time, or the number tells you nothing.

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.
