Join us for the Vhi Virtual Women's Mini Marathon 2021!

Help us raise vital funds for the animals in our care

We’re calling on all women to run, walk or jog this year’s marathon and raise funds to help rescue and rehome Ireland’s most cruelly treated and neglected animals. Invite your female friends and family to participate too, and together, you can help save hundreds of more animals across Ireland.

On Sunday 19th September, we can be together whilst following the original route of the Vhi Women’s Mini Marathon on an exciting new Event APP. So, if you’re taking part in Killybegs or Kildare, Birr or Bunclody, Sligo or even Singapore, you can still ‘Race the Real Route’ on your app! Your town. Your way. Your 10k.

Getting involved is easy

1. Visit Vhi Virtual Women’s Mini Marathon and sign up today to receive your race number. The entry fee is €15 for Irish residents, €18 for overseas. You must be 14 years of age or older.
