Day 278 of running the entire length of Africa. Need your support now more than ever on this one. Appreciate you all🫡

[Russ Cook @hardestgeezer]

Right girls and boys, we have a bit of a problem. We haven’t been able to get visas for Algeria, and if we don’t get them, then it’s game over for project africa.

I’ve been running now for 278 days, covered nearly 12,000km through 13 countries and raised over £140k for charity in my attempt to become the first person ever to run the entire length of Africa. But right now all of that is totally hanging on whether we can get permission from Algeria to let us cross in through this border with Mauritania.

This is the only option we have left so, Algeria, if you’re listening, please reach out to me on my contact [email protected]

Anything you need from us please let me know. It would be an absolute privilege to visit your beautiful country.

To everyone following the journey online please help us out by sharing this and helping us get this seen by the appropriate people in Algeria.

I’m currently on Day 84 of becoming the first person ever to run the entire length of Africa.

Made it through deserts, mountains, jungle. Pissed blood. Food poisoning. Recently got robbed at gunpoint. Still got over 11,000km & 13 countries to go.

This is my progress on the map.

Your support would be a game changer🫡

Some good news to start the weekend. Following on news yesterday that SARS collected R16.7bn more in tax revenue for the 2021/22 fiscal year than expected in the Feb budget, Moody's revised the outlook on SA's sub-investment grade credit rating to stable, from negative. #Progress

Good morning Minister @MbalulaFikile on the 1st Saturday in March 2022 the world celebrates World Free Public Transport Day.
How about making the train rides free that day to draw people back to public transport? Let’s ride the train together on that day?

Good morning it’s 6:53am in Cape Town as I arrive to buy my ticket. Weather: low of 18 and a high of 27. For Capetonians that’s winter in the morning & summer in the afternoon. With my consulting work I’m not always sure I can use the train - depending on my routes. But …

Holiday read and a damn good one so far. But their thesis on the Chinese banking sector makes me very very nervous of anything to do with that market.

Good morning! It's Election Day.

GO VOTE!!!

Tonight, when we're doing mathematics together, I can promise you one thing: Turnout is going to be utterly critical. Your choice to vote or not is super meaningful.

@nickhedley Thanks!

What if we could mobilise the gifts, talents, knowledge, skills & networks of all those who care about South Africa to co-create a future that works for ALL in SA?

What if this could be a citizen-led initiative with a sense of urgency?

@StephenGrootes @SAfmRadio Maybe an idea is just turn to them into average speed cameras?
