What the fuck? He ran his "first" half marathon 8 minutes slower than the world record?

Mr Gray, who usually runs in 5km races, said: "My boss called on Thursday to ask if I wanted to take his place as he was injured, and I thought 'why not?'

So he usually does 5ks but decided to do a half-marathon with 3 days notice and won it? How is that even possible?

That BBC article seemed to try and imply he did parkruns and then gave a half marathon a shot. Makes a better story. He also did it in his club vest, which is lunacy.

Not sure! http://www.thepowerof10.info/content/itemdisplay.aspx?itemid=24
