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 38 km from Swadlincote in a straight line, which for most people is an early train rather than a hotel. Whichever race you enter, the programme is built backwards from that date.

Swadlincote 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.
Chains with a site here: Snap Fitness, Bannatyne Health Club. If you already hold one of those memberships, you can start this week without paying anything new.

16 gyms and sports centres sit within a few miles of the centre of Swadlincote. That is enough to choose on what the floor actually holds rather than on which is nearest.
Closest to the centre you have Crown Kickboxing, Green Park Apex and Green Bank Leisure Centre, the nearest of them about 0.1 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.
Swadlincote Ski Slope and Moat Ground 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.
Snap Fitness and Bannatyne Health Club 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.
You are well served for measured running around Swadlincote. 4 parkrun courses sit within reach: Coronation Park parkrun, Conkers parkrun and Rosliston parkrun are the closest three, Coronation Park parkrun being about 2 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.
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.
