Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Olutobi Rotilu #5890 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Strong finish with the fastest final kilometre Olutobi completed this 5K in 50:29, averaging 10:05/km across 5.00 km. She placed 229th in the Female 3640 division and finished ahead of roughly 31% of the field overall (3,892 of 5,624). Her quickest kilometre came at the end: 9:43/km for the fifth kilometre. Her pacing was steady early, with 9:54/km and 9:59/km across the first 2 km, then a slower middle section at 10:25/km and 10:29/km before that late pickup. Regaining speed over the final kilometre is a useful marker of control. For future races, aiming to hold the first 2 km pace deeper into the middle section could bring down the overall time.
