Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Hannah Meredith #1801 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Fast Opening 2K Set Up a Solid 5K Hannah ran 5.00 km in 27:07, averaging 5:25/km. Her strongest section came early: 1 km in 4:54, then 2 km reached in 10:09 at 5:04/km average. She stayed under 5:30/km through 3 km, hitting 15:35. In a field of 5,624, she finished 507th overall and 128th in the female 1825 category. The key stat is the front-loaded pacing: first 2 km averaged 5:05/km, while the final 3 km averaged about 5:39/km. That shows good early speed and a clear base to build from. As a coachs note, aiming to hold the 23 km rhythm deeper into the race could bring the overall average down further. On this fast Canary Wharf evening 5K, that opening speed was a strong asset.
