Sinfield to bring MND community Together on final day of 7 in 7 Challenge

Kevin Sinfield will conclude his 7 in 7: Together on Sunday 7^th December when he runs into AMT Headingley Rugby Stadium, the scene of some of his finest hours during his glittering playing career. 

Sinfield and his team will run from Queen Ethelburga’s school near York, the route takes the team through Green Hammerton, Cattal, Wetherby, Linton, East Rigton and Bardsey before entering Leeds through Moortown and Meanwood.

Sinfield will then set off the inaugural Leeds Santa Dash at Leeds Beckett University’s Headingley campus before completing the final Extra Mile with members of the MND community at Leeds Beckett. Sinfield and the team will then set off for AMT Headingley to join the Santas to celebrate the completion of the 7 in 7: Together Challenge.  

Kevin is set to run seven ultra marathons in seven days across seven cities or regions. Again, this will include an Extra Mile event where members of the MND community will join Kev for one mile each day from 1st to 7th December 2025. Each day will be broken down into 7km blocks that Sinfield must complete inside the hour, before setting off on the next leg on the hour. 

This year, Kevin and the team will visit new locations that could be overlooked by major events so the MND community in each know they are not forgotten. The name for this year’s challenge is 7 in 7: Together.

The public are asked to come out and support the challenge as it visits towns and villages but the public are not allowed to join the run for everyone’s safety and protection. 

Commenting on the latest challenge Sinfield said, “It is great to be coming back to Leeds for the first time since 2023. It will be a very special day, especially with us being able to add a mass participation element to the final day with the Santa Dash. AMT Headingley holds so many special memories for me and it will be wonderful to arrive into the stadium with our 7 in 7 team and conclude this year’s challenge.”
