Swords hosts a race, which changes how you train for it.

HYROX Dublin: dates, venue and when to start

Your nearest race

Royal Dublin Society (RDS)

Dublin · November 2026

The race comes to Swords. 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.

Check the official Hyrox calendar for final dates.

Where you can train in Swords.

Swords 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 Swords actually involves.

Where to train in Swords

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

Closest to the centre you have Integrity Fitness, Yogahub Swords and Image gym, 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.

Image gym and Saint Finian's Community College Sports Hall 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 Swords

There is no parkrun close to Swords, 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.
