The VHI Women's Mini Marathon is returning to Dublin this year.
Thousands of women will take part in the 10k road race on the June Bank Holiday weekend. Since its inception in 1983, over 1.1 million women have taken part in the marathon.
The mini marathon is the biggest women only event of its kind in the world. And over the past four decades, the charities that people have chosen to support have also benefitted massively from the event.
