Gesture touched a nation's hearts

When England rugby coach Kevin Sinfield carried his former teammate Rob Burrow over the finishing line of the inaugural Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon in May, the tenderness of the gesture touched a nation's hearts.

‘Our friendship has gone through difficulties and challenges but we have always stayed loyal and looked after each other. That epitomised the team we played in. People often think rugby is this macho sport but the best teams really care about each other and I think this showed it.'
