Training in Highworth
A hilltop town with its own pool.
Highworth Recreation Centre at The Elms is run by Halo, with a 25 m four-lane pool, a first-floor gym with free weights, an exercise studio, an indoor cycling studio, and a sports hall for badminton, squash, netball and five-a-side. Highworth Tennis Club is listed at the same address, and Highworth Town FC and the cricket club play at the Elms Recreation Ground. The rest is small and local: Pilates by Victoria, Leadership Martial Arts and MF Highworth, Elias Performing Arts and Faye dance classes, a bowls club and Wickstead Farm Equestrian Centre.
The town stands on a hill about six miles north-east of Swindon town centre, so any run out of it finishes with a climb. That's the kind of session that goes better with company, as does an early swim or a regular squash game.
