- On 22nd and 23rd November 2021, Rugby League legend Kevin Sinfield set out on an epic challenge to run 101 miles in 24 to raise money to support two great causes.
Donations will be split equally between the Leeds Hospitals Charity appeal to build the Rob Burrow Centre for MND supporting people living with MND and their families, and the MND Association which funds multi-disciplinary care delivered at the Centre and others across the country, as well as research into potential treatments for the disease.
Supporters can back Kevin’s appeal now at donate.giveasy...
This should be compulsory viewing up and down the land. Integrity. Resilience. Charity. Friendship. Kevin Sinfield is one of the leading role models in this country.
If anyone deserves a knighthood it's this guy. Awesome job Sir Kev
He sure does amazing guy.❤️👍
He does deserve a knighthood, but what he's done for his mate Rob, there is no honour high enough, that could be given to Kevin.
Odd thing is, Super KEv doesn't care. He's doing this for Rob.
A very special person,a very special human being, a beautiful man, a true true friend to his beautiful heroic brave brother...ROB BURROW....rip Rob , thank you so much Kevin Sinfield....may the good Lord bless you both, from Ireland.
Untill recently, I had no idea who Rob Burrows is? My sister has MND...I was told to watch the BBC documentary on Rob and his condition....What a game changer, and what a lovely guy he is, I'm learning more about this terrible condition, the emotional roller coaster watching that person change....
I take my hat off to all who gave Rob your upmost support.....
Take a bow Sir Kev 💙 thank you on behalf of everyone part of the MND community - we'll never forget this!
Respect. He does this for love of his best mate not for anything else. He deserves every bit of respect that the world can give him and Rob deserves every bit of love.
I am ashamed to admit it, and due to the fact being born and bred in RU, South Wales, I have never heard of Rob and Kevin. But since Rob's condition being broadcast on the BBC and his interview with Doddie Weir and Steve Harper, the two are not only Rhino legends, but sporting legends as well. Also, the Rhinos, have a gained a new supporter.
No shame in that mate I don’t think many league fans would have heard of Ed Slater before his diagnosis but as rugby fans we’ll be supporting him in his battle against this awful disease
In tribute to Rob and his family, I hope the RLWC is a blinder. I do hope my own country does well, mind you. Come on Wales. Thanks for replying
There is something intrinsically wrong with this country if Kevin Sinfield isn’t knighted.
Sir Kevin Sinfield 🙌
I wish I had a friend like this hes an extremely amazing person x
Top geezer, this is a Man, I salute him 👏
Such an incredible effort for a great cause by an unbelievable human being and his team. We’re privileged to have him at Tigers.
What an amazing guy......Take my hat off to you.....
(Sir) Kevin Sinfield, does NOT allow the thought of surrender enter his mind.
A sports legend, a mental hard bugger, to put his body through the physical and mental anguish two years in succession for he best mate and former team mate is the stuff legends are made of.
Just hours after getting home from a 101 mile run inside 24 hours and his thoughts are what can I do next year to raise more money for the MND charity?
How much longer before Her Majesty taps those broad shoulders with a sword making him a Knight of the realm?
What can he do next year?
Whatever it is, former playing team mates will turn out again to help and support him.
Hopefully little Rob will be there when he crosses the line.
And my wife and I will be in tears again.
What a man.
On behalf of my family, thank you for once again being someone, we can trust in. #insirkevwetrust
People like this make me proud to be a rhino's fan not just a team but a city and a big family
Never been a rugby fan but have watched Robs journey with awe and amazement, he was such an incredible brave selfless person, as for Kevin PLEASE knight this hero the strength of Kev and Robs friendship took my breath away, true Brothers In Arms.. i will contribute to the Rob Burrow centre as its totally deserved.. both men are a phenomenal inspiration ❤ ❤
Wow. Just fucking wow. I’m full of so much admiration I can’t put it into words. But to see the power of male friendship and how deeply it can be felt. It’s amazing. I honestly feel despite what we’re conditioned to think a true friendship means more to men than women.
What a fantastic film, about an incredible man! The love he has for Rob Burrow is so pure. I had many a tear in my eye at the end!
It’s an awful disease and what it’s done to such a legend is tragic. The more money that can be pumped in to help the better! Well done Sir Kev - you are truly a legend
Kevin sinfield one hell of a man he probably doesn't even know how many people he has inspired by his resilience and positive vibes .just by watching him on documentary's he's helped me with my battle with addiction .thanks kev
as for you Kevin SINFIELD the WORLD loves u more than u will know
What a legend and inspiration to the whole world how has this man not been knighted yet even boris referred to him as sir Kevin so this has to happen he is by far the most deserving for everything he's done for rob and for MND
It’s heartbreaking to see Robbie after the exceptional player he was and Kev is a true friend and hero total respect for these people from a Widnes fan arise sir kevin
This month I am doing the 15000 steps for the MNDA 🧡💙 I met rob and his family last year so when this challenge came up on Facebook I had to do it I’ve met some lovely people in the group and raised some money as every little will help people like Kevin sinfield are inspirational and he’s a big name in the rugby world god bless you Kevin sinfield you inspired me 🧡💙
If anyone deserves to be knighted, it's Kevin Sinfield... no questions asked!
Im a scottish Bradford bulls man and hes does deserve the highest accolade in the uk
Top top human being his love n care for Rob burrow n his family is amazing to see
Amazing, Kev and all those who put in these efforts. I’ve kept an eye on it as a rugby league fan and it sends a special message about togetherness and team spirit during difficult times. It’s no surprise to me as a fan of a different team in super league to see the immense effort and sense of brotherhood between Kev and players from that golden period for Leeds. And Rob himself is fighting the biggest battle of all. I wish them all the best and my full respect. The sports itself is not only behind you all, the nation is!
I thought Clarke Kent was " SUPERMAN " not anymore he's not he's called " KEVIN SINFIELD " should be Sir Kev !! Another amazing show of true friendship & team work 👏👏👏👏. Humbling. There's only one Robbie Burrows Leeds 🦏 s .. Legends the pair of you 👏👏👏👏👏. Utmost Respect.
What a legend , so much respect for him
This man is one of the true greats. What a fantastic role model.
Friendship taken to the extreme, well done Kev and to your support team. Hope Rob is holding on. If love was a cure, Rob and Doddie would be cured.
Kevin is a legend... A brilliant man, wot he doin for MND is just unbelievable...

Well done Sir Kev a super hero just think be all down hill on the number 7 heading back lol 👍🏻
Hes a machine is king kev like he says he not a runner so to do 7 in 7 was some achievement but to do 101 mile in 24hr is super human and i love the bit where keith senioris running and kev keeps farting and keith says u know when kevs farting coz is shoulders start going and kev says some things never change thats what rob said to keith in dressing room on band of brothers game
Well done that man
Top bloke
Videos like this should be shown in gym classes across schools because if this isn't inspirational, then someone please show me what is. If this man doesn't get knighted for his service to MND charity, then no one deserves to be knighted again. Ive said it on previous posts not only is he an inspiration, rugby legend, hes the best kind of friend a person could ever want or need and thats priceless at times when life is hard just an incredible human who always comes across so humble.... can i just point out that rugby players should be in the same pay level as footballers especially with all the evidence associated with MND... if there was more money in the sport there'd be better support. I know rugby players who have played for the british lions who are now builders since retiring and thats a disgrace. They should be financially set for life after their dedication to the sport.
❤❤
👍
As much as I think he’s amazing doing all this, he needs to stop. He won’t top this without injuring himself or even worse. Even Rob’s dad has said so
Sir Kev absolute legend
