Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Chris Wade #1536 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Steady 5K pacing with a strong final kilometre Chris covered 5.00 km in 25:33, averaging 5:06/km. He placed 123rd in the male 3640 category and finished ahead of roughly three-quarters of the field, placing 1410th of 5624 overall. His kilometre splits were consistent: 5:05, 5:01, 5:11, 5:15, then 5:03. That closing kilometre was a good response after the slower middle section, and his fastest split came at 2 km. The full spread from fastest to slowest kilometre was just 14 seconds, which shows solid control across the evening 5K through Canary Wharf. As a coaching point, holding closer to the early rhythm through kilometres 3 and 4 could trim more time next outing.
