Russ Cook REVEALS: Being kidnapped in the Congo Why he discovered Christianity and what it means to his success How he remains humble How it felt to be the first person to run the entire length of Africa How he ensured he couldn't quit running The serious health issues he suffered during the run BEST MOMENTS "I didn't start off an amazing runner or anything, but I've been out there an awful lot. I guess it's like with you in business, similar kind of principle, just you go put yourself out there. You try, try, try, you fuck it up a little bit, then you learn from it."  "I made quitting so painful that it meant I could bear quite a lot before I would even think about quitting."

"Be fucking serious about your work, but not serious about life and what people say to you and the shit you read online."
