Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Kirthika Nimalan #1379 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Fast Start and Strong Closing 5K Kirthika ran 5.0 km in 25:46, averaging 5:09/km. She placed 1,457th of 5,624 overall, 376th woman, and 133rd in the female 2630 division. Her opening kilometre was her quickest at 4:49, and she finished well with a 5:02 final kilometre after settling through the middle of the race. The pacing pattern shows a fast start, then a steadier middle section of 5:14, 5:25, and 5:18 before that closing pickup. That late response is a good sign, especially in a fast evening 5K like Run The Wharf through Canary Wharf. For the next race, aiming for slightly more even early pacing could help carry that strong finish further across the full distance.
