	<description><![CDATA[Senior Aircraftman Andy McMahon, a member of 2622 (Highland) Squadron of the Royal Auxiliary Air Force Regiment, based at RAF Lossiemouth, ran the Kinloss to Lossiemouth Half Marathon on Sunday 19 February 2012 breaking the Guinness World Record for the fastest Half Marathon completed in a gas mask.  Andy completed the course in 1 hour 27 minutes and 23 seconds breaking the previous record of 1 hour, 51 minutes and 31 seconds by 24 minutes and 08 seconds.  Andy ran this Half Marathon in the newly issued General Service Respirator (GSR) which is now entering service with the Armed Forces.
&#8220;The GSR is fantastic and streets ahead of the S10 respirator, I think I was running at almost max pace, I have been training hard but I did not imagine I would go anywhere near as fast&#8221;.
