Roughly 339 km from Whanganui 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 Whanganui.

Whanganui 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: CityFitness, Jetts Fitness. If you already hold one of those memberships, you can start this week without paying anything new.

What training in Whanganui actually involves.

Where to train in Whanganui

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

Closest to the centre you have CityFitness, CityGym and Jetts Fitness, 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.

Whanganui Harrier Club and Cricket Pavilion 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.

CityFitness and Jetts Fitness 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.

Where to run around Whanganui

There is no parkrun close to Whanganui, 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.
