Training in Grays

Pools, health clubs and fight gyms by the Thames.

Grays has more than one big option. Impulse Leisure Blackshots has a 25 m pool, a refurbished gym and a Kinesis studio, Storm Fitness & Leisure next to USP College adds squash, a sports hall and floodlit astroturf, and the Bannatyne club at Chafford Hundred has a 20 m pool and an outdoor spa pool. CrossFit Thurrock and Unity Fitness Club cover coached strength, and the fight list is long: The Venue for boxing, Thurrock Martial Arts for jiu-jitsu, Grays Judo and Yamaguchi Goju-Kai karate.

Blackshots also has an athletics stadium, Grays Beach sits on the Thames foreshore, and Chafford Gorges' old chalk pits are next door. Find someone to train with and the c2c ride or the river path goes quicker.
