Training in Newmarket

Pool, CrossFit and the heath.

Newmarket Leisure Centre on Exning Road is the public option, with a 25 m pool, a teaching pool, a 100+ station gym and a sports hall. CrossFit Structure runs classes and coaching, and Asgard Fitness, Fit-factory, The Shark Tank and The High Rep Society give you a choice of smaller gyms. RaceFit, inside the charity The Racing Centre on Fred Archer Way, is a gym with daytime classes. CB8 Jiu Jitsu Academy and several martial arts schools cover the mats, and the Newmarket Real Tennis Club plays on Fitzroy Street.

The Jockey Club's 2,500 acres of heath and gallops lie west of the town, and the public may go on the training grounds after 1pm once the horses are done. A running partner who knows the paths makes an afternoon on the heath far easier to plan.
