British Man Reportedly Finishes His Run From South to North of Africa After Almost One Year

MOSCOW (Sputnik) – The 27-year-old Briton, Russ Cook, has finished running the length of Africa after almost a year, Sky News reported, adding that he covered 16,000 kilometers (9,941 miles).

Cook began his journey from the southernmost point of the continent, Cape Agulhas, on April 22, 2023, and ended on April 7, 2024, in Tunisia, Sky News reported on Sunday. The man crossed 16 countries and raised more than 600,000 pounds ($758,000) for two charities, the report added.

“It was good, I’m a bit tired,” Cook told the broadcaster.

Cook and his team were robbed in Angola, and in the Democratic Republic of the Congo he went missing for days in the jungle, the report read.
