His name is Rusty Burrell and he’s based out of Virginia:

He dresses up as a character during every race he competes in. Last year running the Broad Street Run as Allen Iverson:

He ran the D.C. half marathon last month dressed in full Sean Taylor uniform. A way better tribute than the Commies could ever think of doing:

Fox 29 reporter, Steve Keeley, took a minute from the crime beat to run the race and get some footage of Sir Charles because content doesn’t sleep! Not even when you’re running a 10 miler on your day off:

I love everything about this video. The clarification about the “sub-8 minute pace” so people know old man Keeley’s still got it. The people in the comments questioning said eight minute pace:
I passed him going 9:22 pace

Steve, there’s no way that’s a sub 8 minute mile pace, sorry.

His breathing behind the phone! They kill me every time I watch it. Now whenever he tweets out the next gas station shooting I can’t help but picture him breathing like this while wearing a ballet leotard backwards:
