"Running the entire length of Africa is more than a record. It is a testament to human spirit, courage, and resilience. Keith has shown us that no matter how long the road, taking one step at a time can make all the difference. Keith's achievement is an inspiration for all who dare to dream big. May his journey inspire you to run your own journey with purpose." Eliud Kipchoge, Kenyan long-distance runner
