Head to https://my.huel.com/gbsRuss to fuel your own superhero story.
Russ Cook AKA @hardestgeezer made headline news across the globe. Why? Because hes just completed the equivalent of 385 marathons in 352 days, running across the entire length of Africa. On his epic journey, Russ took on some of the toughest environmental conditions, including the worlds largest hot desert, the Sahara. But it wasnt just extreme weather making this such a treacherous mission, Russ also came face to face with robbing, kidnapping, life threatening illness and extreme injuries.
Unsurprisingly, this mission was not his first rodeo. Russ has been taking on extreme challenges for yearsrunning from Asia to the UK, pulling a car the length of a marathon and even burying himself alive for a week. Its no wonder most people know him better by his nickname, Hardest Geezer.
Back in his hometown, Russ reflects on his colossal mission, revealing a part of his story that has never been spoken on camera before
