Training in Clifton

A lido, a gorge and the Downs.

Water comes first here. Bristol Lido on Oakfield Place is a heated outdoor pool with a sauna, steam room and open-air hot tub, and the University of Bristol's pool, with a 25 m main pool and a teaching pool, is open to the community on membership or pay as you go. Snap Fitness covers open-access lifting, and Gymset on Boyce's Avenue is a private microgym you book by the hour, alone or with your own trainer. Yoga, wing chun, taekwon-do, tai chi and lawn tennis fill out the list.

The Downs, a large open park, are on the doorstep and run right to the edge of the Avon Gorge, and Brunel's Clifton Suspension Bridge takes you across to Leigh Woods. A lap of the Downs before work, or a run over the bridge at the weekend, is easier to keep up with a training partner.
