Runners looking for boats
Sean Walker and Ken Fordyce
Two SIPR marshals looking for a boat/crew to help us experience the race in full. We are Sean Walker and Ken Fordyce. We have helped with marshalling at the Scottish Islands Peaks Race on Mull and Arran for the past few years. Having witnessed the excitement and camaraderie of the race as marshals, we want to get the whole experience in 2026. We are both experienced hill/ultra runners and members of Carnethy Hill Running Club. We are not fast, but we can keep moving for the long haul. We know it will be hard work, but we look forward to enjoying the experience to the max. Neither of us is a sailor, but we are keen to pitch in and help in any way we can during the sailing legs. s_e_walker@yahoo.com
Ellen Downs and Rob Downs
We’re a dad & daughter team of experienced mountain runners. Rob (61) has completed the SIPR on Laura and Fearless Friend over the last few years. He can still run a decent marathon and is happy to help out with sailing, delivery trip, logistics etc. Ellen (28) has raced successfully in the SHR Champs as well as Jura and Arran. After hearing her dad’s SIPR tales, Ellen is now keen to experience the epic weekend. RunningBob@gmail.com

Graham Law
I’m looking for a boat to join for this year’s Scottish Island Peaks Race. I’ve taken part in the 3 Peaks Yacht Race as few years ago and enjoyed it immensely so hoping to set sail again. I’ve got plenty of experience with ultramarathons and mountain running, my most recently challenges being the Spine race in Jan and the Western States 100 in the summer. I would be happy to let you know more about my running CV upon request.
I’m happy to get stuck into all aspects of the race, from big hill days to boat jobs. I helped out with the cooking and also got involved with the sailing in the 3 Peaks Yacht Race.
If you’ve got a space for a runner, I’d love to hear from you! graham12@hotmail.com or 07402714237
(I can help search for a second runner also)
