I doubt he had a Catholic upbringing, because he says: "the vicar or whatever", unless he was a rubbish Catholic who didn't know much.

 The "loneliness of the long distance runner" is a book by Alan Sillitoe. The Back cover says it's a modern classic, but I wouldn't go that far, It's not bad for a short story though. I think it was made into a film, but I've never seen it. Apparently the book's better if you are/were a long-distance runner, which I'm not.
