Said goodbye to Ghana 🇬🇭 and hello to Ivory Coast 🇨🇮. Still riddled with injuries, and this whole part of the world is still stinging hot. Absolutely cream crackered.
Gonna headbutt the pillow and hopefully rock steady for 8 big ones before getting back out there sharp in the morning. Two hundred and sixty three days man, what is even going on at this point🤣
#ProjectAfrica Day 40: 60km
Had some solid bowl movements for first time in a while this morning. Knew it was go time. Determined to start making up for the lack of km’s in recent days.
60 big ones in before the sun went down. Satisfied. Demand the same again tomorrow. Minimum. Death is upon us all. Walls to be built. Vamos.
Efficient days get me going. Almost as much as caramel deserts. Big thank you to Frans Indongo Lodge for hosting & feeding us the last couple of nights. 10/10 experience. Cannot wait to come back.

#ProjectAfrica Day 26: 21.1km
The day that was always coming. Woke up with muddy water falling out my arse and vommit falling out my face. Not ideal. Couldn't even get myself vertical until the afternoon.
Managed to stomach 4 squares of chocolate and a few sips of orange squash so there was no more excuses left. Back on road.
Ran 5km. Spewed again. Started walking instead. Forward movement at all costs. Made it to 21.1km with both legs cramping at the end.
I feel completely depleted of all energy but also have no desire to eat anything.
Illness was always going to be part of this mission. Finding a way to make progress despite it is part of the challenge I came here for.
I wish I could've done more, but that was all I had today. We go again tomorrow.
New day, new opportunity🫡
#ProjectAfrica Day 25: 59.1km
Had a dream last night. I was in big Tesco. Meal deal in hand. Hoisin duck wrap. Woke up. No hoisin or duck anywhere to be seen.
Realised I wasn't in Tesco. I was in the middle of nowhere in Namibia and I had to run another 13,700km before I'd get a meal deal.
Was quite sad but I fixed up quick time. Thought, might aswell get a wriggle on. Got back on road. Collected another brick for my wall.
Settling in for the evening. Knackered. Just took my socks off. Horrific sight. Horrific smell. Chef Nessie cooking us up a storm before I pass out. Love it.
Holy cow this is good.
Jon Stewart easily lures a pro-gun/anti-drag queen Republican into a trap…and then blasts him over his blatant, shameless hypocrisy.
Wholesale gas/oil is now below the price is was before Russia invaded the Ukraine.
So why aren't the big energy firms reflecting this?
Businesses are going to the wall.
Families are having to choose to eat or heat.
The Gov't urgently needs to intervene.
Glasgows very own Seven8 SoundSystem in SWG3 last month supporting the one and only TRYM.
Place went nuts.
Might be our favourite ever clip from a show tbh.
UK Shell Oil have just this minute announced a further doubling of their profits.
£8bn profits in just 13 weeks. A profit rate of £3.6 million every hour.
We are being ripped off.
