Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Ted Wallace #1540 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Strong finish with progressively quicker pacing Ted covered 5.00 km in 21:40, averaging 4:20/km. He finished 553rd of 5,624, placing in the top 10% overall, and was 343rd male and 109th in the male 2630 division. Running with Canary Wharf Run Club, he put together a well-controlled effort at an event known for its fast evening 5K through Canary Wharf. His kilometre splits were 4:27, 4:23, 4:26, 4:19, and 4:07. That closing kilometre was his quickest and 20 seconds faster than his opening kilometre, a strong sign of good pacing and finishing speed. He also moved up steadily through the field, gaining 233 places overall from 1 km to the finish. A useful next step would be aiming to bring the third kilometre closer to the pace of kilometres two and four.
