Orenair B738 at Rostov on Sep 3rd 2013, overran runway on landing

Another runway overrun:-

Incident: Orenair B738 at Rostov on Sep 3rd 2013, overran runway on landing

From Aviation Herald:-

An Orenair Boeing 737-800, registration VP-BPY performing flight R2-9558 from Antalya (Turkey) to Rostov (Russia), landed on Rostov's wet runway 22 at 12:55L (08:55Z) but overran the end of the runway and came to a stop with all wheels on soft ground. There are no injuries being reported, the aircraft received no visible damage but needs a good wash. The passengers disembarked through the left hand main door onto soft ground via mobile stairs.

Radar data suggest the aircraft was on final approach at normal landing speeds until descending through about 1800 feet MSL, then the aircraft appeared to be accelerating over ground by about 20 knots until 700 feet MSL landing at a higher than normal speed over ground.
