On day 241 of the challenge, Mr Cook ran 110.12km (68.4 miles) through Ivory Coast
A man running the length of Africa has completed the longest day of the challenge so far.
Russell Cook, from Worthing, West Sussex, had originally planned to complete 360 marathons in 240 days.
After complications with his visas, health scares, geopolitical issues and an armed robbery, the 26-year-old was forced to change his route, extending the challenge.
On day 241, Mr Cook ran 110.12km (68.4 miles) through Ivory Coast, the equivalent of more than two marathons.
On X, formerly Twitter, he said: “Decent shift out there today. Longest run of the mission by some distance.
“Longer days are yet to come. I’m intent on pushing physical limits further than anything I would've previously considered possible of myself during this home stretch. Let's see what happens.”
