16,000km - meaning he averaged 45.5km a day. To put that in perspective, a marathon is 42.2km. So he ran more than a marathon a day, every day, for almost a year, enduring African weather! He deserves the epithet of "Hardest Geezer" for sure.

I have followed this guy since day 28 and he is a fucking legend, I was always shock by how little traffic he got considering the monumental achievement he was going for and what he had to go through along the way (he was literally kidnapped at one point)

"It looks like you had a years gap between jobs. What were you doing?"

"Just running around Africa."
