Coventry Godiva Harriers is the city's long-established athletics and running club, training at the Coventry Athletics Track on the University of Warwick campus. Road running groups meet on the regular Tuesday and Thursday club nights at 6:30pm, using the many routes around the campus and south Coventry, with run leaders on hand to help newcomers find a group at the right pace.
