Kevin Sinfield’s 7 in 7 Challenge raises over £1 million: Here's how you can donate

Leeds Rhinos ex-captain plans to run roughly 40 miles every day for seven days straight, and as of Friday, when he finished day six at Bradford's University of Bradford Stadium, he had already raised more than £765,000.

At Headingley Stadium, Sinfield, 42, was greeted by a close friend and former Rhinos teammate, Rob Burrow. Sinfield set out on the sixth leg of the race on Friday morning from York Minster.

Burrow and Doddie Weir (Scotland Rugby Player) and Stephan Darby (Bradford ex-captain) are all sports players diagnosed with MND and served as the motivation for Sinfield's most recent fundraising effort.


When Sinfield and Burrow spoke at Headingley Stadium together, Sinfield had to hold back tears.

His 38-mile last leg will be held soon. The Leeds Hospitals Charity and MND Association's fundraising efforts to construct the centre of Leeds' Rob Burrow for MND will receive the bulk of the proceeds from the Ultra 7 in 7 Challenge of Kevin Sinfield.

In addition, donations will be made to Ed Slater's honour and Leicester, who has also been diagnosed with MND. These donations will benefit My Name'5 Doddie Foundation, MND Scotland, the 4ED campaign, and the Darby Rimmer MND Foundation.

After completing seven marathons in seven days in late 2020, Sinfield raised £2.7 million for MND organizations. In addition, he raised more than £1 million in November 2021 after completing a run of 101 miles in 24 hours.
