Kevin Sinfield is a published author and athlete.
The Extra Mile is a Sunday Times Number One bestseller and a nonfiction novel by Kevin Sinfield. This is a memoir by the sporting icon, the man who was a friend to Rob Burrow and a fundraising hero who has helped to inspire an entire nation thanks to his fight against MND.
So many people have had positive things to say about this memoir and about Sinfield himself. The Times, Sports Books of the Year called him a ‘very British hero’ while talking about how this book tells about he ‘set about raising money to combat motor neurone disease’, the condition that affected his teammate on Leeds Rhinos and his closest friend Rob Burrow.
Jake Humphrey said that if readers want ‘inspiring, uplifting and empowering’, you should check out this memoir and give him some of your time. The Daily Telegraph also had good things to say, calling the author ‘adored and respected’ and ‘the best of men’. Clare Balding said that his ‘leadership makes people want to support him and we are all doing that’, even as he supports his friend Rob.
This is not your usual sports memoir, but Kevin Sinfield is also far from being your average man in sports. He was a one club legend from Leeds Rhinos, and now has changed over and serves as a defense coach for the England national rugby union team.
He is an icon in the world of rugby, but while he has often been a hero in the field, he became a hero of a different kind when he selflessly took on fundraising in order to tackle MND (motor neurone disease), which is the terminal illness that unfortunately was affecting Rob Burrow, a former teammate and his closest friend.
Some of his challenges that he has tackled and accomplished are choosing to run seven ultra-marathons in the course of seven days, as well as running over a hundred miles in the course of twenty-four hours. Throughout this process, he has also been able to capture the hearts of many people all over the nation even as he worked selflessly to raise over seven million pounds to support efforts again MND.
He received an OBE in the Queen’s Birthday honors for the work that he accomplished, and also received the Freedom of Leeds and a special BBC Award for everything that he did raising funds to try and tackle the disease. As Matt Dickinson has said, ‘Inspirational does not do him justice, he’s that and much, much more’.
Recounted with the warmth that Sinfield is known for, as well as his dry wit and his leadership, this memoir is the tale of an incredible life, an enduring friendship, of perseverance against an incredibly difficult challenge, and a humble but impressively remarkable person who has taken the odds on and defied them completely.
This memoir gives readers not only an incredibly interesting tale of who Gabby Logan refers to as ‘an incredible human being’, it gives them the story of a life that is astonishing and the type of friendship that comes around once in a lifetime and the tools and mindset to overcome challenges. It ultimately leaves the reader with the question of who we would go the extra mile in life in order to help? A poignant and thoughtful read that you won’t want to miss, whether you’re familiar with Kevin Sinfield from his days in sport or not!
