Training in Hemel Hempstead

Pools, a track, a slope and a lot of mats.

Hemel Hempstead was designated a new town after the war, and it trains like a big one. Hemel Hempstead Leisure Centre on Park Road has an indoor pool and an outdoor one. Jarman Park gathers the athletics track, the XC with its climbing walls and skate park, and The Snow Centre's indoor slope. For lifting there's PureGym, Anytime Fitness, Nuffield Health and independents like Our Gym, The Lab Gym and Healthy U Ladies Gym. Fight sports run deep: Boxmoor BJJ, Mamba Gym, Watford Tactical Fighting, Britannia Boxing Club and Hemel Warriors.

Outside, Gadebridge Park has its own skatepark, Box Moor's common land runs along the Bulbourne, and the old Nickey Line trackbed is used by walkers. A partner for track intervals at Jarman Park, or for rolling at one of the BJJ gyms, makes the week easier to keep.
