Training in Chatham

Big gyms, fight gyms and a ridge to run.

Chatham has plenty of open gyms: PureGym and truGym in town, JD Gyms and You Fit, plus TKO Elite, Thinking Fitness and Cruz Gyms. Fighters are well served too, with Unique Fitness Centre's boxing and K1 kickboxing, Shi Kon Martial Arts, St Marys Amateur Boxing Club, Armour Plated Boxing and Walderslade Judo Club. WKD Yoga and Vicara Yoga cover the quieter end.

Above the Historic Dockyard, the Great Lines ridge runs to Gillingham and hosts a free parkrun every Saturday at 9am. South of town, Capstone Farm Country Park has woods, meadows and a ski slope. Chatham station links the North Kent and Chatham Main lines, so meeting someone to train with is easy from either direction.
