The Benefit Mascarathon

Benefit and Refuge have teamed up on ‘The MASCARATHON,’ a charity run from Scotland to London. Taking place from the 15th – 29th June 2012 the run will start at Edinburgh and stop off at Newcastle, Manchester, Birmingham, Cardiff, Oxford, finishing in Spitalfields, London. Caroline Flack will be kicking off proceedings by running the first two miles in Edinburgh. Awesomely, there will be a mascara ‘baton’ that will be passed from runner-to-runner every two miles.

Every two miles that each of the MASCARATHON runners complete will mark the two women a week whose lives are lost because of domestic violence.

It’s a worthy cause ladies! For more information on how to get involved, visit www.mascarathon.co.uk
