Road Running at Coventry Godiva
Whether you are new to running or an experienced athlete, Coventry Godiva Harriers welcomes all adult road runners. Join us on Tuesday and Thursday evenings for a 6:30pm start at the Coventry Athletics Track.
Training Sessions
Road running groups meet on regular club nights — Tuesdays and Thursdays — making use of the many routes around the University of Warwick campus and the south of Coventry. Meeting at the Coventry Athletics Track (Car Park 12, University of Warwick — satnav: CV4 8UW). All adults (over 18) are welcome, no matter your standard.
The Coventry Godiva road running group is led by two qualified Leaders in Running Fitness (an England Athletics accredited qualification). These leaders can advise on running pace, training schedules, effort, stretching and injury avoidance, and help you find the right group.
Just come along on a Tuesday or Thursday for a 6:30pm start. You will find plenty of athletes at the Track Reception — ask to speak to a road runner!
