Russ Cook (aka hardest geezer), a 26 year old lad from Worthing, is today going to become the FIRST PERSON EVER to run the entire length of Africa

1. Cape to Cairo doesn’t count for what reason?

2. I feel like this guy would have raised so much more money and been far more popular if he was remotely likeable… It’s an incredible achievement but I avoid all of his content

3. That’s a long way to run in one day….

4. I’ve been following it since the third video. If you haven’t watched the YouTube series you’re missing out on a fascinating journey. As well as Russ’ insane endurance, you get to see the best and worst of Africa in detail, a lot of drama involving visas and local police, and toward the end the absolute legend of Hakim, the most devoted mechanic in west Africa.

5. 1. He’s not the first person to do it
   2. His tracking is very spotty

6. Somebody *really* wants an invite onto the Joe Rogan podcast.

   Na fair play to him great achievement.

7. English people trying to run Africa, will we never learn from history smh
