Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Connie Chen #2318 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Fast Finish and Steady 5K Execution Connie ran 5.00 km in 29:46, averaging 5:57/km at Run The Wharf in Canary Wharf. She placed 91st in the Female 3640 division and finished in the top 43% overall (2409/5624). Representing EBRD Runners, she stayed close to her average pace throughout, with 4 of 5 kilometres between 5:53/km and 6:09/km. Her quickest kilometre was the final one in 5:45/km, a strong close after opening with 5:55/km and reaching 2 km in 11:48. The middle section eased slightly to 6:09/km and 6:05/km before she finished faster than every previous kilometre. That late acceleration is a useful marker of control; the next step is to hold a little more of that final-kilometre pace through kilometres 3 and 4.
