Burgess driven on by family and friendship

Leeds Rhinos Grand Final winner Luke Burgess has flown back to Leeds from his home in Australia to take part in the Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon this Sunday to represent his former team mate, his family and his father Mark, who passed away from MND when Luke was younger.

? The Burgess brothers lost their beloved dad Mark to motor neuron disease in 2007 aged 45.

They've done so much to raise #MND awareness and funds for @FightMND in Australia!

G'donya ? Thomas, Luke, Sam and George.

Happy 30th Birthday, @MNDAustralia??!#MND #MoreNeedsDoing! pic.twitter.com/QtmNpNbeAF
