How to recognise the Run Leaders? I expect the Run leaders from the Oakdene will be wearing "BMF" yellow bibs!
I will be leading from the Blue & White Cafe and I will be wearing my BMF bib. It is also expected that on this run that everyone attending will comply with the road traffic act and follow the almost standard "drop off" system whilst actually on the road.

A bit of background. I have been organising a "local" pet food run for a number of years starting in the early 90's when I took over a BMF run to the Blue Cross at Kimpton near Harpenden. Apart from the year I taught in the Czech Republic, this ran throughout the 1990's until 2000. After I moved to Kent and I wanted to give up the 120 mile ride to the starting point of the run. For the last three years I have organised a local run, two years to Pluck's Gutter and this year to this new venue.
