HYROX Manchester

Midwinter in Manchester is crisp and lively, and the Central Convention Complex sits right in the thick of it — a short walk from the glowing Northern Quarter, where you can warm up with a proper brew and a stack of fluffy pancakes after a day of racing. Take a break between heats to wander the nearby Castlefield canals or grab a pint in a restored Victorian warehouse; the city’s food scene is at its coziest this time of year, with hearty pies and mulled drinks on every corner.
