Please Sponsor The Chairman For MND

Back in 2017 after running from Huddersfield to Wembley, I said “that’s it, I’m done.” Since then it’s been the odd half marathon, getting older, and trying (and failing) to have less stress!
Then late summer 2025 I met up with my old mate Sean Jarvis… and without realising it, I got pulled into “one last challenge.”
This time it’s for the Darby Rimmer MND Foundation and for Marcus Stewart (ex-Huddersfield Town) who is battling MND. We’ve all seen what Rob Burrow and Kevin Sinfield have done — and how cruel this disease is.
Here what Kevin has to say in the video -
So here’s the crazy idea…
Starting Monday 15th June, me and Alan “Booby” Boothroyd are running from Ipswich Town FC back to Huddersfield Rugby Club — that’s a marathon a day for 7 days 🥴
We’re calling it “One Last Time” and should arrive back on June 21st (National MND Day).
As always with me… if I don’t do it, I don’t collect! (And if I drop dead on route… it would be nice if you still pay up 😂)
Every single penny goes to the charity — I cover all my own costs.
👉 If you can donate/pledge, it would mean a lot and I don’t collect if I don’t do it
👉 Businesses – van sponsorship available at £250 per company (with radio & TV coverage planned)
If you can help in any way, it genuinely makes a difference. I promise this really is the last one… the head says yes, the body definitely says no! MND doesn’t just affect sportspeople — it can affect anyone, and it’s a truly awful disease.
Thanks for taking the time to read this 🙏 Its tough times at the moment and no one really wants to read a begging message ☹
As always thank you
David Elliott
