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.

Close enough to Tilbury to get there on race morning without staying over, and close enough to walk the venue beforehand if you want to. Whichever race you enter, the programme is built backwards from that date.
Straight-line distance from the centre of Tilbury to the venue. The date follows the venue's annual cadence rather than a confirmed listing, so check the official Hyrox calendar before booking.

Tilbury 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. If you already hold one of those memberships, you can start this week without paying anything new.

20 gyms and sports centres sit within a few miles of the centre of Tilbury. That is enough to choose on what the floor actually holds rather than on which is nearest.
Closest to the centre you have Tilbury Community & Leisure Centre, Iron House Gym and NRG, the nearest of them about 0.4 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.
Tilbury Community & Leisure Centre and The Bat & Ball 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 has a site 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 Tilbury. 6 parkrun courses sit within reach: Thurrock parkrun, Orsett Heath, Cyclopark parkrun and Whitecliffe Lake parkrun are the closest three, Thurrock parkrun, Orsett Heath being about 3.3 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.
