SynopsisThe extraordinary memoir of the sporting icon, devoted friend to Rob Burrow, and fundraising hero who has inspired the nation in his fight against MND WINNER OF THE 2024 SPORTS BESTSELLER AWARD AND OVERALL SPORTS BOOK OF THE YEAR, IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE SUNDAY TIMES NOW UPDATED WITH TWO BONUS CHAPTERS ON SINFIELD'S LATEST CHALLENGES THE INSTANT NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER __________________________________________________________________________ 'A very British hero, the unassuming yet utterly superb Kevin Sinfield - rugby league great turned rugby union coach turned charity fundraiser, all while carrying a torch for the true meaning of sport and friendship. The Extra Mile tells how Sinfield set about raising money to combat motor neurone disease, the appalling condition that has gripped his former Leeds Rhinos teammate and best pal, Rob Burrow. If Sinfield weren't such a modest man, his story could be subtitled, How to Be a Decent Person.' The Times , Sports Books of the Year, 2023 'If you want inspiring, uplifting and empowering... give this amazing man some of your time' Jake Humphrey 'Kevin Sinfield is adored and respected . . . he is the best of men' Brian Moore, Daily Telegraph 'I've always thought Kevin Sinfield was a hero. His quiet, calm, committed leadership makes people want to support him and we are all doing that as he supports Rob Burrow and everyone living with MND' Clare Balding 'The friendship between Kevin Sinfield and Rob Burrow gives you faith in humankind' Sir Chris Hoy __________________________________________________________________________ The Extra Mile is no ordinary sports memoir. But Kevin Sinfield is no ordinary sportsman. A one-club legend of Leeds Rhinos, who has now crossed codes as a defence coach for the England national rugby union team, Kevin Sinfield is a rugby icon. But in recent years has shown heroism of a very different kind through his selfless and extraordinary fundraising for motor neurone disease (MND), the terminal illness that has affected his best mate and former teammate Rob Burrow. Sinfield's epic challenges have included running 7 ultra marathons in 7 days, and running over 101 miles in 24 hours. In the process, Sinfield has captured the hearts of the nation and over 7 million for MND. He was awarded an OBE in the Queen's Birthday honours for his efforts, along with the Freedom of Leeds and a special BBC Award for his fundraising. Told with Sinfield's characteristic warmth, dry wit and inspirational leadership, The Extra Mile is the story of an astonishing life, of an enduring friendship, of perseverance against the most difficult of challenges, and of a remarkable, humble human being who has defied the odds. The book equips readers with the tools and the mindset to embrace togetherness and to overcome their own challenges. It leaves the reader with the urgent question: Who would you go the extra mile for to help in life? PRAISE FOR KEVIN SINFIELD 'Inspirational does not do him justice, he's that and much, much more' Matt Dickinson 'Kevin Sinfield is an incredible human being' Gabby Logan 'A total hero' Yvette Cooper 'Britain's greatest sportsman (off the pitch) ...
