Our story

This September, Sir Kevin Sinfield and the 7 in 7 team will once again hit the road to raise money and awareness for those impacted by Motor Neurone Disease. With funds split across charities who work with those affected by MND across the UK and Republic of Ireland, this will be the seventh and final annual fundraising challenge for Sinfield and the team.

Starting on Sunday 27th September in Hull, the team will run an ultra-marathon every day for seven days, visiting all 12 English Super League grounds on the way to the finish line at Old Trafford ahead of the Betfred Super League Grand Final. As with recent challenges, each day will be split into 7km blocks that Sinfield must complete within the hour before starting the next leg with an additional extra mile for members of the MND community to join Sinfield to complete their own extra mile.

Our updates

After seven days and more than 200 miles we arrived yesterday in Manchester at the end of 7 in 7: The Grand Finale.
 
I want to start by saying a big thank you to the team. They’ve been incredible this week and none of this would have been possible without them.
 
To everyone who has cheered on – as the week went on the crowds just got bigger! Thank you for your support – every smile, every message, every hug, every story shared will stay with us always.
To the schools, clubs and organisations who have lined the route, thank you. We’ve seen you, we’ve heard you and we’re grateful.
 
To anyone who was donated, thank you for helping us make a difference. The money we’ve raised will be going to six amazing MND charities who work hard to support people living with MND and their families while also funding vital research into new treatments.
 
To the MND community – thank you for continuing to inspire us; and to the Rugby League family thank you for welcoming us along the way. This week has shown us the strength of the love and compassion people have people with MND, their families and carers. We must all keep on playing our part and keep on banging the drum.
 
And finally to Rob who has been right there with us every step of every mile along the way. Thank you.

Throughout today crowds of people have turned out to support us on the roads between Salford and St Helens as we marked the penultimate day of the challenge.
 
Every single one was there because they care and they want to make a difference for the MND community and it’s been incredible to see.
 
While tomorrow marks the end of 7 in 7: The Grand Finale the hard work is actually just beginning. Whatever you can do to help, whether it’s making a donation to support our MND charities, or checking in on someone to make sure they’re OK, it all helps and it all matters.
 
Thank you for everything you’re doing – we really appreciate your support.
 
Please keep banging the drum.

Today was all about family – the MND family and our own families too.
 
The love for the MND community was everywhere as we made our way through Huddersfield and on towards Oldham – the area many of us call home.
 
Seeing people of all ages and backgrounds coming together to fight this disease has been incredible, it’s the very thing which gives people with MND such hope for the future.
 
We ended Day 5 in Salford and have been overwhelmed once again by your kindness and generosity. Thank you for continuing to support us.

Kevin

Today was really tough – the longest day of the challenge so far. The miles are hard but we’re determined to keep going and keep on pushing.
 
From Wakefield, through Leeds, Bradford and into Huddersfield we’ve been overwhelmed by the love, kindness and generosity we've seen along the way.
 
This week has shown us that the challenges have never really been about running. They’re about raising awareness, building a community and making sure people affected by MND feel loved and supported. Thanks to you, and the incredible work of our charities, they do.
 
Thank you for everything you’re doing to support the wonderful MND community.

Kevin

This challenge is all about the MND community and today we got to see once again just how wonderful that community really is.
 
At every stop we shared precious moments with people with MND and their families – every smile, every hug pushing us to go even further.
 
That sense of community was there at the Extra Mile where crowds of people were waiting to greet us and it was there in Wakefield where we were honoured to meet Their Royal Highnesses The Prince and Princess of Wales, a moment, I know, I will never forget.
 
Every day this challenge gets harder but we must keep pushing and we will keep fighting.
 
Thank you for your support, it truly means everything.

Kevin
