Welcome to GoodGym Coventry! We're a friendly and social group who combine exercise with helping out in the local community. We meet every week to get active and do a physical task to help the charities and community organisations and projects in our area.

Come and celebrate the launch of GoodGym's partnership with Raleigh. On top of our usual session today we'll be marking the GoodGym x Raleigh partnership with some treats courtesy of Raleigh. New people are always welcome at GoodGym so if you've not attended a session yet this is the perfect one to try out

The Task:

Coffee Tots have had to find new premises as there are plans to knock down the City Arcade and the Bull Yard for housing, a hotel and leisure facilities.

They need our help to dismantle some shelves and move some boxes as they have now moved to the Wave.

About Coffee Tots:

Coffee Tots is a parenting support project, based in a community cafe in Coventry City Centre; offering support for parents and baby and toddler play sessions that boost confidence and improve well-being

The Run/walk:

GoodGym is for everyone. We welcome runners of all abilities and it is often possible to walk to the task if you would prefer. We always have a back-marker so no-one is left behind - we're about achieving something together so you'll always be welcome no matter what your pace is.

It will only be a short run to the arcade so we will probably finish off with a fitness session.

Where to meet:

Meet outside Coventry Boys and Girls Club at 6.15. There is on street parking but if you struggle to find a space you can use the clubs car park. There is cycle parking a bit further down on the opposite side of the road. Toilet facilities available.

New to GoodGym?

This is a GoodGym group run, where we run to help a local community organisation and then run back.

New GoodGymers are welcome to GoodGym group runs - no one gets left behind. You're unlikely to be alone, hundreds of new people sign up every week.

Options are available to run between 2km and 4km in total

Remember that we run to and from the task, so you'll only be running for half this distance in one go.

This is a standard GoodGym group run. If you can't run for more than 15mins without stopping or you're worried about any aspect of the session, contact us.
