The Vhi Women’s Mini Marathon returns as a virtual event for 2021.

The event is aiming to build on last year’s which saw over 20,000 people take part to raise money for charities and causes.

The organisers have announced today that the event will be held virtually for the second time, and is set to take place in September, with full details to be announced in the coming weeks.

The physical race will not go ahead on the June Bank Holiday weekend, in light of the ongoing Covid-19 restrictions.

Brighid Smyth, Head of Corporate Communications in Vhi said; “The past year has been exceptionally challenging for everyone, with the charity sector hit particularly hard, hopefully, this event in September will see women across the country out in force once again to complete their 10k and support the causes and charities they wish to support.”

Anyone who has already entered the 2021 physical event will be contacted directly by the event organisers, and offered the choice of a full refund on their entry or have their entry rolled over to the 2022 event.

Full details are available at www.vhiwomensminimarathon.ie.
