As previously announced, Bury St Edmunds Rugby Club are beyond proud that Kevin Sinfield, the MND fundraiser and former Rugby League player, will begin his latest challenge, 7 in 7: Together, from our own Greene King IPA Haberden.

Sinfield has raised over £10 million with his five previous challenges for those impacted by Motor Neurone Disease, inspired by his friend and former team mate Rob Burrow.

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 challenge will start on Monday 1st December as the team arrive in East Anglia, running from Bury St Edmunds to Ipswich in tribute to former Ipswich Town striker Marcus Stewart, who is living with MND.

Your Committee have been working hard to ensure that we reflect our gratitude for this opportunity and that we put on an event our community can be proud of.

We are still working hard to finalise the final details and expect to share full details by the end of next week.

But, for now, we can share some more information with you on this special occasion.

• We will be selling breakfast, tea and coffee in the clubhouse from 06:30am.
• Attendees will be able to take part in a Mr Motivator style warm up ahead of the big start.
• We've booked a DJ to get the party started and to wake you up!
• Greene King will be in attendance.
• WOLFIE will be on site and starting the challenge with Kevin Sinfield.
• We are excited to be welcoming local and national press to The Haberden.

MND will be our charitable focus for the entire month of December. We will be facilitating in-clubhouse buckets, bobble hat raffles and more to support our overall contribution to this amazing cause and to Kevin Sinfield's extraordinary efforts. More on this later.

Now, we are calling upon you - the #haberdenfaithful and the wider Bury St Edmunds community to join us and support this momentous occasion.

Kevin is due to run around 08:00am but we want to pack The Haberden way before this, to create the ultimate atmosphere for him.

More details will follow over the coming weeks but save the date, set your alarms and let's make this a day to remember.
