DOGS
Running with dogs is not permitted. All dogs on and around the event area must be kept on a lead at all times due to the number of small children around.
RUNNING WITH BUGGIES
You are welcome to run with a suitable running buggy, however please be aware that this is a trail run and certain parts of the course will be bumpy. If you choose to run with a buggy then you will need to give priority to runners, and you will need to start the race at the back of the field as the early part of the course is quite narrow as it goes into the woods.
TOILETS
There will be facilities available at the school and at the pub.
MARSHALLS
The course will be well marshalled. We rely on volunteers to make this event possible, so if you would like to help out in any way then please email [email protected].

THE ROUTE
The course will be fully marked with km markers, and will be marshalled, however it is your responsibility to know the route. The event organisers will not accept responsibility for anyone failing to follow the correct route for whatever reason.
The course is accurately measured and marked out however due to discrepancies in GPS devices the organisers can not be held responsible for any small variances in the event distance.
BAG DROP
We will be operating a secure bag drop facility on the race day. The organisers accept no responsibility for loss or damage to any property.
WATER STATIONS
We will have water stations on the course and at the finish, however it is advisable to bring your own water for the start and finish as on hot days we may have to limit the amount we are able to give away.
