She placed 362nd in the Female 3135 division, 1716th among women, and 3746th overall out of 5624 starters. Representing EBRD Runners, she finished the evening closed-road 5K through Canary Wharf with her fastest segment coming late. Her km splits were 8:04, 8:16, 8:38, 8:25, and 7:52. The standout stat was the final kilometre: 7:52/km, 46 seconds quicker than her slowest km and the only split under 8:00/km.
