Rugby League legend Rob Burrow has said the marathon held in his honour was “one of the best days” of his life.
The 40-year-old, who has motor neurone disease, said of the inaugural Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon: “The whole day was one day in a million.”
Rob was pushed around the 26.2-mile route by ex-Leeds Rhinos teammate Kevin Sinfield – who plucked him from his specially adapted wheelchair to carry him over the finish line.
