“It’ll be a happy but a hard day,” says Sutton-based mum-of-four Keeley Power, describing what it’ll be like to participate in this year’s VHI Virtual Women’s Mini-Marathon.

Keeley has done the marathon for the Children’s Health Foundation at Crumlin Hospital since 2015. “I’m honoured to do it,” says Keeley, who feels she owes her nine-year-old son’s life to the care of the hospital’s doctors.
