Alscot welcomed more than 100 runners for its first-ever Tempo 5K, with participants taking on the challenging course in sweltering 34-degree heat. Despite the conditions, 106 runners crossed the finish line, cheered on by supporters from neighbouring villages who lined the route, many armed with hosepipes to help keep runners cool as they tackled the climb up Atherstone Hill.

The event, organised in partnership with Tempo Events, also saw Team Alscot take part to raise funds for Friends of Stratford Hospital.
