Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Thomas Sheat #4345 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Strong Negative Split and Fast Closing Kilometre Thomas ran 5.00 km in 21:21, averaging 4:16/km. He finished 507th of 5,624, placing him in the top 10% overall, and 100th in the male 2630 division. His pacing improved steadily through the race: 4:33, 4:22, 4:28, 4:07, and 3:52 per km. The standout stat was the finish. His final 2 km averaged about 4:00/km, a clear lift from the opening 3 km average of 4:28/km. He moved from 821st at 1 km to 507th at the line, gaining 314 places overall. That kind of late-race strength worked well on this fast evening 5K through Canary Wharf. Next step as a coachs note: aim to bring a little more of that closing speed into the middle kilometres.
