It was never going to count as an overrun, given that the aircraft came to a halt with 8000ft+ of runway ahead of it.

Most AIBs use the CICTT's Occurrence Category definitions, and under those the event would be likely classified as both a CFIT ("includes collisions with those objects extending above the surface (for example ... power lines ...)" followed by a Runway Excursion.

"Crash" doesn't appear anywhere in the definitions.
