100-year-old man completes marathon

A 100-year-old British man has completed a race in Hong Kong.

Fauja Singh, from east London, finished the 10-kilometre race just four months after he made headlines by doing a 32-mile marathon in Canada.

Speaking about the Hong Kong race, he explained: "The weather was very pleasant, I enjoyed the race very much."

However, Fauja is yet to make the record books as the world's oldest marathon runner because the officials haven't seen his birth certificate.
