What a lovely piece of fiction. The man runs everyday, went out for a ROUTINE jog, and quite obviously was concerned about staying healthy and trim. To the point of very likely being gay.
Sorry - the cigarettes, whisky and the hanging all make ZERO sense. Check his lungs - he will not be a smoker. Check his BAC, he won't have touched the whiskey. This is the work of a Thai gang initiation, or of a jilted gay lover, but dismiss, and conclude, it as a suicide and keep the tourists coming.
