KEVIN Sinfield admits he may be like \u2018Humpty Dumpty\u2019 as he goes through his latest physical challenge.<\/p>\n
But the reaction of Rob Burrow and the motor neurone disease community makes it worth it.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The rugby league legend, currently England RU\u2019s defence coach, will add millions more to his already huge fundraising total with a fourth feat, his Ultra 7 in 7 in 7.<\/p>\n
From Friday, he will complete marathons, plus an extra mile to show how far people caring for those living with the condition go, every day in different cities across the UK and Ireland in the name of his pal and former Leeds Rhinos team-mate.<\/p>\n
But he is willing to end up like the nursery rhyme character after a lack of proper preparation because of World Cup commitments.<\/p>\n
Sinfield, who knew what he would be doing about the time of this year's Six Nations, said: \u201cIn my mind, it\u2019s been trying to get my body into shape so I can run for four hours a day, then spend the next 20 trying to put Humpty Dumpty together again!<\/p>\n
\u201cIn that time, there\u2019ll be some travel and disruption, which means nutrition and recovery won\u2019t be perfect. But life for people with MND and their families isn\u2019t perfect.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was at the World Cup for two months, before that I was in camp for three. In terms of long runs, up until the start of November, I hadn\u2019t done one for five.<\/p>\n

We haven\u2019t got a cure. We feel we can help some more. There\u2019ll come a point where I can\u2019t run any more but I\u2019ll find another way of banging that drum.<\/p>\n <\/picture>HOPE <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/picture>TEAM ‘CURSE’ <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/picture>CHALLENGE DECLINED <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/picture>NEW START <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n \u201cRob thinks I\u2019m crackers but I\u2019ve been out at 5.30am in Saddleworth running, I first went two days after getting back from France.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s been important to make our training as tough, dark and horrible as we can. Running around Saddleworth at 5.30am on a Wednesday in the rain isn\u2019t all it\u2019s cracked out to be!\u201d<\/p>\n While Sinfield is going through the pain barrier to raise funds and awareness, the Government has put \u00a335 million of the \u00a350 million it pledged towards research and treatment in search of a cure.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n But that is not enough, some of those current living with MND may not see the results.<\/p>\n He added: \u201cIt\u2019s more the time. People with MND don\u2019t have time to wait. As we saw with Covid-19, if you throw enough money at something, you can get a cure.<\/p>\n \u201cBut whether that money had all been released or not, we\u2019d still be getting ready to run.<\/p>\n \u201cThat\u2019s for finding a cure and drugs, 50 per cent of what we raise goes to that human side – that helps people, that makes their journey a bit better.\u201d<\/p>\nRugby ace tells fans to ‘get hands on his trotters’ as he launches ONLYFANS page<\/h3>\n
