Training in Southport

Seafront, chains and combat gyms.

Down on the Promenade, Victoria Leisure Club has three pools, three gyms (one of them ladies-only), a glass-backed squash court and a reformer studio. The chains are well represented, with two Everlast Gyms, PureGym, Anytime Fitness and Snap Fitness, and independents such as Anvil Gym, Level Up Gym and TERA Gym sit beside Coastline CrossFit. For combat there's JB BXNG Gym, Imperial Thai Boxing Academy, Unite Martial Arts and OLOL Judo Club, and Southport Gymnastics Club and Dan Purvis Gymnastics both coach here.

Southport Pier reaches 1,110 m out from the front, the Ainsdale dunes to the south are a national nature reserve, and the Trans Pennine Trail sets off from the town on its way east. Hesketh Park at the northern end gives you a greener loop. A run along the seafront is easier to keep up when someone is waiting for you at the start.
