Roughly 92 km from Ngaruawahia 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 Ngaruawahia ]
Enough choice in Ngaruawahia 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.

Ngaruawahia has 5 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 Ngaruawahia United Football Club, Taupiri Rugby Club and Eastern Waikato Netball, the nearest of them about 1.2 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.
Ngaruawahia United Football Club and Taupiri Rugby Club 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.
There is no parkrun close to Ngaruawahia, 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.
Other places we cover in New Zealand. Plenty of people train in the next town over, whether that is a better gym or simply the one on the way home.
