A stag party member dragged himself out of bed to win a top half-marathon race.<\/p>\n

Ollie Garrod, 30, was on a weekend bender to Bournemouth when he lined up with 4,500 other runners on the start line after just four hours sleep.<\/p>\n

The 11-man stag party had gorged on a Chinese meal and downed a few beers on Friday night before going out on a beach day and all-day bar crawl on Saturday ending in the early hours.<\/p>\n

Ollie, an accountant from Ashtead, Surrey, decided to put on his running shoes and joined the race on Sunday morning \u201cas a bit of jolly\u201d. He hadn\u2019t expected to win after his \u201cnot ideal preparation.\u201d<\/p>\n

But after getting off to a fast start he said the cheering of spectators \u2013 minus his mates who were all still in bed with groggy heads – carried him home to win in an impressive time of one hour 10 minutes. He finished over a minute ahead of the second place runner to win the Run Bournemouth race.<\/p>\n

A delighted Ollie said: \u201cThere were 11 of us on the stag do and on the Friday night we had a Chinese and beers. Saturday was a lovely day on the beach in the sunshine then various bars.<\/p>\n
