Even pacing with a strong opening kilometre He covered 5.00 km in 23:01, averaging 4:36/km. In a field of 5,624, he finished 822nd overall, placing in the top 15% overall and top 10% of men aged 2630 (159th). His fastest kilometre was the first in 4:27, and all five kilometres stayed within a 19-second range, showing strong pace control. His position improved from 852nd at 1 km to 794th by 3 km and held through 4 km before a small drop late on. Kilometres 25 were 4:35, 4:46, 4:41, and 4:34, with a solid final kilometre after the slowest third. That rebound is a good sign. For the next 5K, aim to keep the middle kilometres closer to the opening pace to reduce the dip around 3 km.
