When the historic annual race was first announced on national BBC TV in support of Leeds Rhinos’ rugby league legend and the build of the Rob Burrow Centre for MND Research, it inspired me to enter the marathon and get my retired marathon boots out for possibly one last hurrah.
My just giving page is linked below and you can sponsor me right away. Possibly my cousin Matty and mate Jonny who are also running the marathon may also join onto my page, if they don’t create their own - so watch this space.

Below is a list of the races and virtual runs that I have planned in and also invited my cousin Matty and mate Jonny to join me in some of my preparations for the marathon so hopefully some of the below races and virtual runs over 2022 and early 2023, we may all run together.
