Meet the Hardest Geezer

Tuesday, Apr 16

On April 7th, runner Russ Cook crossed the finish line in Tunisia, Africa, as part of a race he had started 352 days prior.

Grit and perserverance... Russ, who calls himself "The Hardest Geezer," ran the entire length of Africa to raise money for homeless young people and clean water for Africa. 

  • His journey took him through jungles, brought him face to face with thieves, and even gave him a brief kidnapping scare, but he made it to the finish line with a smile on his face. 

🍹 Well deserved: Russ celebrated with a dip in the Mediterranean Sea and strawberry daiquiri.
