Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Joseph Shaw #2885 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Fast opening kilometre set up a solid 5K Joseph ran 5.00 km in 27:55, averaging 5:35/km. His quickest kilometre was the first in 5:23, and he reached 2 km in 10:55 at 5:27/km. He finished 75th in the mens 4650 division, 1,221st male, and 1,992nd overall out of 5,624. The pacing trend was steady early, moving from 5:23 to 5:32/km across the first 2 km, then easing to 5:41 and 5:47 before a stronger closing kilometre of 5:33. That late response is a good sign. For the next 5K, aiming to hold the first-2 km rhythm deeper into the race could trim time. Run The Wharfs evening closed-road format through Canary Wharf suited a sharp opening pace.
