Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Katie Bower #3264 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Strong finish with progressively quicker pacing Katie covered 5.00 km in 30:28, averaging 6:05/km. She placed 915th of 5,624 women overall and 288th in the female 2630 category. Her pacing improved through the race: 1 km in 6:16, then 6:07, 6:11, 6:09, and a fastest final kilometre of 5:47. That closing kilometre was 29 seconds quicker than the opening one, a clear sign of good control and finishing strength. She also moved up well after 1 km, improving from 1,083rd female at the first split to 900th by 4 km before finishing 915th. For the next 5K, aiming to bring the first 2 km a little closer to mid-race pace could help unlock a faster overall time at this fast evening Canary Wharf event.
