The Echo Women's Mini Marathon is the biggest event of its kind in Munster.
It has grown from its beginnings, in 1981, with only 300 participants, to
over 10,000 participants in recent years.
Whether you are a seasoned runner, on a fitness mission, or are joining
friends to enjoy the walk, the Mini Marathon is suitable for everyone, with
women choosing to run, jog or walk depending on their fitness level.
Each year, several hundred thousand euro is raised for local, national and
international charities and organisations. Each year, an estimated
€1.5 Million euro has been raised for charity by participants, over the
last three decades, with the participants themselves deciding which charity
they will support. The Echo Women's Mini Marathon has become a key event on
every charity’s fundraising calendar.
