🚘 The car park will be full so please park close by each other and sensibly.. you can park on the drive way in once the car park is full.

💤 Please ensure your dogs are settled and quiet in between runs in your car or van so not to disturb our neighbours. This also gives them some downtime and time to recover between runs.
