Stewart's Equinox Epic
Our superb Trustee and Patron, Stewart Sale, completed Equinox24 in 2025 with his lovely wife, Jane, and for 2026 he returns to take it on solo!!
Stewart: "19/20th September 2026, I am taking on the Equinox24 at Belvoir Castle – a 24-hour endurance running event where the aim is simple (but far from easy): to complete as many 10km loops as I can in a full day and night."
Any donations to this fantastic effort would be greatly appreciated and can be made at: https://www.justgiving.com/page/ultrastew
