Training in Huddersfield

Pools, a track, a bouldering wall and plenty of fight gyms.

Start at Huddersfield Leisure Centre on Spring Grove Street, where Kirklees Active Leisure runs a 25 m competition pool, a 20 m training pool with a movable floor, squash courts and three studios. KAL's Leeds Road Sports Complex adds an athletics track. For open-access lifting there's The Gym Group, JD Gyms and Énergie Fitness for Women, and Freeklime has the town's bouldering wall. The fight scene runs deep: kickboxing and Muay Thai at Team Hanson, Gladiators Boxing Academy, Rawthorpe Amateur Boxing Club and two jiu-jitsu academies.

Greenhead Park, about three-eighths of a mile west of the centre, holds a parkrun at 9am every Saturday. Castle Hill, an Iron Age hill fort topped by the Victoria Tower, gives you a climb with a view, and Beaumont Park is another green space for a loop. A university town with this much on offer is an easy place to find someone who trains when you do.
