Run Mama Run - A Fund Raising Project for the MBT & the Mama Ù Project
Run Mama Run is a back-to-basics, word-of-mouth, tartan-clad, kilt-swinging endurance challenge around the Pentland Hills Regional Park for friends, fans and family connected to the Martyn Bennett Trust.
We hope each team entering can raise as much sponsorship as possible to fund the Mama Ù Cultural Centre in Columbia to help young people seek refuge from conflict and rediscover their musical culture. Teams are not just competing for the fastest time around the route of their choice, but also for the most sponsorship raised and craziest tartan fancy dress.
Starting and ending at Flotterstone at 8am on 28th August 2010 all teams choose their own adventure when they register.
As a rough and ready challenge there are some important ground rules to help everyone enjoy the day, the fantastic views and be proud of what they’ve achieved for the Mama Ù project.
For example
- All participants must wear tartan, be over 18, of the recommended fitness level, able to read a map and take part in teams (2-6 people) that stick within 50 metres of each other, carry the compulsory kit list and finish before 16:00
- This is a non profit making, volunteer run event but we need to cover set up and insurance costs so the entry fee is £35
- All those cycling must keep a support team member back at Flotterstone to look after gear. With no showers and only 2 water stops you’ll need a change of clothing and extra supplies.
- There will be a limit of 50 participants so register asap to join a cosy friendly crowd of elite adventurers (closing date is 6th August 2010)
Come well trained, well prepared and looking like an explosion in a bagpipe factory. Still up for it? We thought so.
Check out the online registration form. Go on... Jis Dae It!
