Lindsey Burrow to take on Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon

With less than 12 weeks to go until the Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon, the team over at Leeds Hospital Charity caught up with Lindsey Burrow at a training session with her Personal Trainer Josh Taylor.

Lindsey is braving the cold early mornings to train and has been clocking up the miles, following a marathon training plan developed by Josh.

Thanks to her incredible fundraising efforts, Lindsey has already raised over £2,000 for Leeds Hospitals Charity’s appeal to build the Rob Burrow Centre for Motor Neurone Disease at Leeds Teaching Hospitals.

Lindsey told us her motivation behind running the Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon:

“Rob and I have been so humbled by the support we’ve received over the past few years, we could have never imagined the impact sharing our story would have on so many people, not only in Leeds, but across the UK.

I’ve watched so many people push themselves to the limit to raise funds because of Rob, so I thought it was time that I also went out of my comfort zone.

I enjoy running and have done some half marathons to raise funds before, but a full-blown marathon is a completely new territory for me.

I’m a bit nervous but I’m now up to 17 miles and am determined to complete it, not just for me, but for all those families living with MND.
