Training in Chorlton-cum-Hardy

Council pools, boxing and nature reserves.

Chorlton's training starts with two Better centres. Hough End Leisure Centre on Princess Road has a 25 m pool, a teaching pool, gyms, squash courts and football pitches, and Whalley Range Sports Centre on Wilbraham Road adds a gym, studio classes, a sports hall and a 3G pitch. Smaller places fill in the rest: St John's Amateur Boxing Club, CrossFit Didsbury, Habitual Fitness, Yoga Cafe Manchester and Ikiyōyō Dōjō, a traditional Japanese jujutsu school.

Chorlton Water Park, a nature reserve on a restored gravel pit, and the trails of Chorlton Ees are both close to the Mersey, and the Fallowfield Loop begins in Chorlton on its 8-mile off-road route east. Runners and cyclists here never have far to go to find company.
