Good grief… it’s that time of year again – the Skye Events AGM on Thursday 12th March at 7pm.

Everyone is warmly welcome to come along, hear what we’ve been up to, how the year’s gone, and how you can get involved.

We’re always looking for new Trustees or Committee Members to join our small, friendly team. If you’re thinking you wouldn’t have anything to offer, we promise you do – and we’d genuinely love to hear from you. We simply couldn’t do what we do without our volunteers, who help deliver our races and raise funds for local community groups and charities.

You’ll meet inspiring people, enjoy race day, and make a real difference in our community.

If you’re interested, make 2026 the year you get involved. Come along to the AGM for a warm welcome, or contact Fiona via the email on the image below. We’d love to see you there.

To our athletes and friends: you are the heart of everything we do. It’s a privilege to support your fitness and health journeys while giving back to the community we love. 🏃‍♂️🏊‍♀️🚴‍♀️

Thank you for the energy, the smiles, and the miles. Have a wonderful break and we’ll see you in 2025 to do it all over again! 🥂✨
