Endurance, Determination and Grit: The first ever man to run the length of Africa shares his inspirational story

10,000 miles. 16 countries. 352 days.

Hardest Geezer, Russ Cook, is the first person to ever run the entire length of Africa. From his starting point in Cape Agulhas, South Africa, through sandstorms in the Sahara Desert, rainforests, mountain ranges and long empty roads stretched out for miles in front of him, Russ ran the equivalent of 386 marathons before finally crossing the finish line in Tunisia 50 weeks later.

Attempted kidnaps, being held at gunpoint in an armed robbery and the whole challenge left hanging in the balance when he was denied the right to cross Algeria, Russ never once contemplated giving up. When he crossed the finish line in Ras Angela, he did so with the eyes of the world on him.

Africa may have been his most physical challenge yet but it certainly wasn’t his first. For years, Russ hid from the realities of life by drinking too much and losing himself in the world of online gambling and it wasn’t until he discovered running and sought out endurance challenges that life took a different turn. He soon learned that you don’t get to avoid the struggle, but you do get to choose it.

Hardest Geezer: Mind over Miles, is an inspirational story full of sheer grit and incredible determination.

‘You get one chance at life. Go and have a stab at it.’

I love that the Hardest Geezer himself narrated his book. I learned even more about him and Project Africa than what I saw on YouTube. I love that Russ was so open and candid about his life...and his narration improved as the book went on. I listened to the book while running and it was the perfect thing to keep me motivated and entertained on long run day!

It’s a privilege to be running on the same road Russ endured at the beginning of his journey.

I first started following Mr. Geezer somewhere in Africa. I knew there’d be a book, but didn’t expect it so quickly and boy am I happy about that. I really enjoyed his story from his struggles, and his honesty with himself. I loved that he narrated it too. I look forward to see Mr. Geezer’s next endeavor but following this experience was something I’ll never forget and this book reaffirms that for those of us who were along for the ride from afar.

What an epic adventure!

Brilliant story of resilience. Very tainted view of South Africa, which is not accurate. Team dynamics also leaves a bitter taste.
