‘Hardest Geezer’ Russ Cook joins Rishi Sunak for morning run in Westminster

Rishi Sunak took a morning jog around Westminster with the “Hardest Geezer” Russ Cook on Thursday morning (25 April).

The pair were seen running side by side as they returned to Downing Street.

Earlier this month, Mr Cook completed his gruelling challenge to run the length of Africa and just last Sunday, also finished the London Marathon.

He spent 352 days moving across Africa, covering more than 16,000km, taking over 19 million steps and passing through 16 countries while raising money for charity.

Mr Cook described the London Marathon as “a stretch of the legs” after completing the 26-mile event.
