Fundraiser and campaigner Kevin Sinfield has started a new charity challenge, the first following the death of his best friend and former Leeds Rhinos team-mate, Rob Burrow. Kevin will run seven ultramarathons in seven successive days to his hometown of Saddleworth, in what he is calling "Running Home for Christmas", raising money for motor neurone disease causes along the way. He started the challenge in Liverpool, where he ran alongside thousands as part of the city's annual Santa Dash. Report by Etemadil.
