Hi Feras,
I guess Gael made this runoff from original Fekete et al(2000) @lat/long 
grid.
Actually I think this is better, so we can go to any llcXX from llc90 by 
beforehand interpolation.
If the original Fekete climatology is exactly along the coastline, then 
one will have trouble
by directly feeding model with the lat/long grid as other atmos states.
Anyway, here are two other runoff products that you may have interest:
1) a very old 1-degree runoff but used for many years
(link below:

and its related "data.exf" description:

2) a modern one, ie, JRA55do for next OMIP
It's 1/4-degree, daily mean from 1958 to present:
