Training in Stowmarket

Pools, climbing and a 24-hour gym.

Stowmarket has the district's widest choice. Mid Suffolk Leisure Centre on Gainsborough Road has a 25 m six-lane pool, learner and toddler pools, a gym of more than 100 stations, a floodlit athletics track and The Cragg, with 330 m² of climbing. NRG Fitness on Creeting Road West is open to members 24 hours a day, with dumbbells to 60 kg and more than 40 classes, and PureGym, Gymophobics and Evolution add more gym floors. Fortitude BJJ, Urban Combat and Stowmarket Judo Club cover the mat, and Purely Pilates the studio.

Every Saturday there's a free 5 km parkrun, three laps of mixed terrain at Chilton Fields, and a junior parkrun at the Recreation Ground on Sunday mornings. Turning up with someone you know, or meeting someone there, is how a habit sticks.
