Russ Cook, known as the 'Hardest Geezer,' completed a record-breaking run across Africa, covering 10,000 miles. Guinness is set to award him the world record for this feat. Cook's achievement has sparked admiration and controversy, with comparisons to past endurance challenges. Additionally, a Coventry man plans to run the length of the UK inspired by Cook's accomplishment. In a separate report, Sky News highlights the dire humanitarian crisis in Yemen, exacerbated by the war in Gaza, with high levels of hunger and cholera outbreaks affecting the population.
