Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Edward Atterton #2212 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Strong Mid-Race Surge Set Up a Solid 5K Edward ran 5.00km in 32:10, averaging 6:26/km. He placed 426th in the mens 2630 division and finished ahead of roughly half the 5,624-runner field. His fastest kilometre was km 2 in 4:56, a big change from the opening 7:41, and he reached 2km in 12:36. From there, his pacing settled well: 6:37, 6:36, and 6:22 across the final 3km, with the last kilometre his quickest after km 2. That late pickup is a useful positive on a fast evening 5K through Canary Wharf. As a coaching note, a more controlled first kilometre could help turn that strong middle section into a faster overall result, since the closing 3km averaged about 6:32/km after the early surge.
