Viewers were moved to tears by Rob Burrow's touching story told in a feature on BBC Breakfast this morning. It aired as Kevin Sinfield issued a heartfelt message to supporters and confirmed the total raised at the first Rob Burrow Marathon in Leeds.
On Saturday's (May 20) BBC Breakfast, hosts Naga Munchetty and Stayt played part of Rob's documentary about living with Motor Neurone Disease (MND) as they talked about the sweet moment Kevin Sinfield carried him over the finish line at last week's marathon in Leeds.
Viewers were completely moved by the feature. Lizzie Donaghy tweeted: "Just watched @BBCBreakfast Rob Burrow programme. Just so moving how he and all his family are fighting @MND. What a warrior Rob is - what a family he has. His mum & dad, Lynsey, Maya, Jackson and Myla are all incredible. All their love for Rob - in turn their pain so moving."
