Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Diana Michaliova #1802 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Steady 5K with a Strong Mid-to-Late Reset Diana ran 5.00 km in 26:41, averaging 5:20/km. She placed 11th in the Female 5155 division, 463rd female, and 1678th overall out of 5624 finishers. Her opening kilometre was her quickest at 5:15, and she stayed tightly grouped across the race with just 14 seconds between her fastest and slowest full kilometres. The pacing pattern was controlled: 5:15, 5:23, 5:29, 5:19, 5:17. After a small dip through km 3, she responded well with her second-fastest kilometre over the final 2 km combined, averaging 5:18/km from km 4 to the finish. That late correction is a good sign. For the next 5K, aiming to hold km 2 and km 3 a little closer to the opening pace could bring the overall average down further on a fast evening course through Canary Wharf.
