Set a treadmill at 21kph ( max most will go to) and try to run for 30 seconds on it. That's what he did for 1 hour, 59 minutes and 30 seconds. The peak of human physical achievement. Insane, absolutely insane.

Did you know? Under #Agenda2063, the African Union is advancing the creation of three continental financial institutions to strengthen Africa’s economic sovereignty and reduce reliance on external financing. These are: The African Investment Bank (AIB) – to finance infrastructure and strategic development projects The African Monetary Fund (AMF) – to promote macroeconomic stability and provide financial support to Member States The African Central Bank (ACB) – to deepen financial integration and support a future common African currency These institutions are designed to ensure that Africa finances Africa, strengthens integration, and builds long-term resilience.
