## Description

I Ran the World is the author-led brand behind Chris Long MBE’s account of Sport Aid, the international movement that brought an estimated 20 million people in 89 countries together on May 25, 1986, to raise awareness and support for famine relief in Africa. Its central offering is the book I Ran the World, a memoir and historical chronicle of the “Race Against Time,” described as the largest mass-participation sporting event in history. Drawing on Long’s experience as Sport Aid’s founder, chairman, and organiser, the book traces the event from its initial idea and preparations to the symbolic torch lighting in Sudan and activities in 274 cities. It also reflects on the personal challenges behind the campaign and Long’s broader commitment to humanitarian work. His recognised contributions include service connected with UNICEF, sport, charity, and marine conservation. The brand presents the book as an inspiring record of collective action and the lasting legacy of a global campaign.
