Kevin Sinfield opens up on emotional moment he carried Rob Burrow in Leeds Marathon

Kevin Sinfield has called the Leeds Marathon "an incredible day" after carrying his stricken friend Rob Burrow over the finish line.

The inaugural Leeds Marathon, which is named in Burrow's honour, took place earlier this month to raise money for research into motor neuron disease (MND). Burrow was diagnosed with MND in 2019 and has worked tirelessly to raise awareness of the disease.

Sinfield has also played a vital role in the fight, raising more than £8million for research into MND by completing several astonishing challenges. Sinfield's latest fundraiser saw him push Burrow for the duration of the Leeds Marathon before carrying him over the line.
