Today we were honoured to support one of our runners, Nigel Westwood, with his #getthegoattolondon charity event, raising money for his London Marathon target. The challenge was to walk, jog or run up to 5 x 5K laps to represent 25 years working as Drug Supply Manager at Cancer Research UK.
Nigel has been involved in clinical trials for drugs such as Rucaparib and Zytiga which have since reached the market. He continues to do vital work for this amazing cause.
As always, Tempest runners turned up with plenty of support, determination and of course, incredible generosity. Thank you for allowing us to be part of it Nigel, no doubt you will smash your fund raising target and the London Marathon in April 2026!

At Tempest RC we love our regular team challenges, which keep us motivated during cold November nights, allow us to have a friendly competition where everyone is on a level playing field, or add a bit of fun into our running.
Go check out Sophie Roberts, letting everyone know what the club's been up to for the November Nightlights Team Challenge x

Yesterday marked International Men's Day, where we celebrate the positive contributions men give to our community. It is a chance for us to highlight positive male role models and raise awareness of men’s well-being.
At Tempest Running Club, we aim to make a positive difference to the well-being and lives of our male members.
Tonight we braved to cold and ran to raise awareness for the Movember Movement and to celebrate all of our amazing men in the group.
We were lucky enough to hear some positive stories from two of our members, Dan and Simon, who kindly shared how running and the running club family have helped their well-being since joining. Thank you to Dan and Simon for inspiring us and thank you to everyone for coming along to support.
Cheers to all of our great guys here at Tempest! You make our club a better place to be xxx

Tempest RC took to the road for the York 10 mile race, which has become a firm favourite in our calendar over the last few years. Some smashing performances were no doubt fuelled by the homemade pies on the party bus! (you didn't think that people went just for the running, did you?)
