Product Description
Rob Burrow is one of the greatest rugby league players of all time. & the most inspirational. As a boy, Rob was told he was too small to play the sport. Even when he made his debut for Leeds Rhinos, people wrote him off as a novelty. But Rob never stopped proving people wrong.
In December 2019, Rob was diagnosed with motor neurone disease, a rare degenerative condition, & given a couple of years to live. He was only 37, not long retired & had three young children. When he went public with the devastating news, the outpouring of affection & support was extraordinary. When it became clear that Rob was going to fight it all the way, sympathy turned to awe.
This is the story of a tiny kid who adored rugby league but never should have made it – & ended up in the Leeds hall of fame. It's the story of a man who resolved to turn a terrible predicament into something positive – when he could have thrown the towel in. Far more than a sports memoir, Too Many Reasons to Live is a story of boundless courage & infinite kindness.
