This must be the new "way of marching". Our son just graduated from Military Basic Training and they were marching this fast off the parade. I am old school 120-140 paces a minute. This is like 160+.
Is your son in a light infantry regiment? They march at 140, so noticeably faster than the traditional pace of 116 - it's not new though, they've always had a higher cadence. As Major Leroy in the Sharpe series so neatly puts it: "The Rifle Regiment only has two marches: quicktime and dawdlin'..."
All the idiots here saying they’re marching fast due to their ties as light infantry have no idea what they’re talking about. The fast pace is simply because they’re marching at the ‘double’ - otherwise known as double time. This is a simply just another form of marching

There Marching at 140paces per minute compared to the normal 120paces, only the rifles march at this pace

Such a false marching step
they march at that pace because they are light infantry - think about it
Extremely poor foot drill, lines are also not formed properly. Bad show!
