Roughly 275 km from Stratford in a straight line, so treat it as a weekend away rather than a day out, and book the room when you book the race. Whichever race you enter, the programme is built backwards from that date.

Where you can train in Stratford.
Stratford is not spoilt for choice, which matters less than it sounds. A barbell, something to pull on and somewhere to walk covers most of what changes a body, and your programme is written around what you can actually get to rather than an ideal setup.

What training in Stratford actually involves.
Where to train in Stratford
Stratford 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 Wai o Rua - Stratford Aquatic Centre, TET MultiSports Centre and Page Street Sportsground, the nearest of them about 0.3 km out. Ring before you join and ask what the free-weight area looks like at the hour you would actually be there. A rack you have to queue twenty minutes for at six o'clock is the single most common reason a programme stops getting done.
Wai o Rua - Stratford Aquatic Centre and TET MultiSports Centre are listed as sports centres rather than gyms. Multi-use sites are usually where the floor space is, and often where the off-peak hours are quietest, which matters more to a training habit than the equipment list does.
Getting your conditioning in around Stratford
There is no parkrun close to Stratford, 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.
Making it stick in Stratford
The hard part of training in Stratford is not the first fortnight, it is week seven, when the novelty has gone and the weather has turned. What survives that is a programme that already knows which days you train and does not need you to decide anything on the day.
With a smaller choice locally, the programme has to bend to the equipment rather than the other way round. That is a constraint, not a problem: almost every exercise has three substitutes, and the one you can actually do twice a week beats the one you can do occasionally.
The options here sit close together — from about 0.3 km out to 0.7 km — so switching is cheap if the first one does not suit. That is worth knowing before you sign a twelve-month contract rather than after.
No national chain shows up in the listings here, so these are independents. That usually means shorter contracts and a better chance the person on the desk knows what a sled is for, and it does mean checking terms one at a time.
