This year’s Vhi Women’s Mini Marathon is now open for entries! We’re calling on all women to join Team Marie Keating to help raise funds for vital cancer services.  Invite your sister, mother, and your female friends and family members to participate too.

Every day another 123 people will hear those frightening words – ‘you have cancer.’ Many of us have family and friends who are undergoing treatment. And some of us know firsthand how your whole world can change in that instance. That’s when the Marie Keating Foundation steps in with vital cancer awareness and support services.

Whether you run, jog, or walk, every step you take could help someone on a cancer journey.

This year’s event takes place on Bank Holiday Sunday June 2nd so there’s plenty of time for to sign up and start training!
