Where Coventry 10K starts and finishes
Coventry 10K starts at Cox Street, Coventry city centre and finishes at Cox Street, Coventry city centre. We haven't been able to place those on a map accurately enough to show one — a pin in the wrong place is worse than no pin.
These are the start and finish points, not the route. Verus doesn't hold course files for this race, and drawing a line between two pins would be a guess you might end up training on. The official course map is the one to use: view it on the organiser's site .

Training Strategy for Coventry 10K
6-10 weeks is a solid window for a 10K, whether it's your first or you're chasing a PB. Consistency and a weekly speed or threshold session matter more here than sheer mileage.
This is a largely flat course, so most of your long runs can mirror that — flat and steady, building time on feet rather than hill strength.
Ease off mileage in the final week, keeping a couple of short, sharp race-pace efforts to stay fresh. Arrive at Cox Street, Coventry city centre fresh, energized, and primed — not fit, fresh.
Lock in your target pace using the interactive splits calculator below — no official pacers are confirmed for this event, so a pace band on your watch is the more reliable option.
Test your race-day fuel and hydration plan on your long training runs, not for the first time on race day — check the Race Day Checklist below for what's actually on this course.
10K Nutrition & Fueling Plan
A modest increase in carbohydrate intake over the 2-3 days before the race is the standard approach for a race of this length.
Breakfast should be carb-focused and eaten 2-3 hours before the start, using whatever you've already proven works in training.
A 10K rarely needs on-course fuel for most runners — water stations are the main provision at this distance.
Getting some carbohydrate and protein into you within an hour of finishing helps recovery start properly.
