CV Date Mistake Before Interview

Hey everyone, I recently got invited to an interview through a director contact at the firm. After double-checking my CV, I noticed a mistake: the date of a one-day case competition (not directly relevant to the role) was accidentally listed as spanning 1.5 years. This happened when I reused a section to match the formatting and forgot to update the dates, so it is definitely my oversight and I know I should have seen it.

I still need to ask for the time and location of the interview, so I was thinking of using that email to send a clean, updated version of my CV. Is that a good idea, and do you think I should mention the mistake explicitly, or just send the new version without drawing attention to it?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
