Hardest Geezer can't run final Euro route due to injury
He has had to pull out of the planned Euro 2024 final run
Charity fundraiser Russ Cook has revealed an old injury has flared up which means he won't be completing his final Euro 2024 run.
The 27-year-old from Worthing, West Sussex, set off from Wembley Stadium on foot reaching Gelsenkirchen in western Germany in time to see England defeat Serbia.
Following that 352-mile run, Mr Cook, known as the Hardest Geezer, ran from city to city to follow Gareth Southgate and the England team throughout the tournament.
Previously speaking Mr Cook, who completed a mammoth African trek from Cape Town to Tunisia in April, said: "I am buzzing to be back on the road again.
"It's going to be a race against the clock, but I'm determined to support Gareth and the boys.
"If people spot me along the way please feel free to give me a wave or even run alongside me for a while."
