Training in Perry Barr

A Commonwealth Games stadium on your doorstep.

Alexander Stadium has indoor and outdoor athletics tracks and is where Birchfield Harriers train, and inside the complex Perry Fitness Centre runs a 120-station air-conditioned gym, an indoor bike room and a group workout studio. Beeches Pool & Fitness Centre adds a 25 m pool, two gyms and a sauna and steam room. The rest of the list is a mix: GMAC for gymnastics and martial arts, Reform by RJ for Pilates, kickboxing and self-defence classes at the stadium, hockey, cricket and Goals five-a-side.

The River Tame runs through Perry Barr, and Perry Hall Park and Perry Park give you somewhere for the easier miles. With a track this close, a training partner for intervals is worth finding.
