Strong Closing Kilometre Lifts a Steady 5K He completed the 5K in 32:52, averaging 6:34/km. Among 5,624 finishers, he placed 3,000th overall, 1,604th male, and 438th in the male 2630 division. Running for EBRD Runners, he stayed close to his average early with 1km and 2km at 6:32/km and 6:34/km. The middle of the race eased slightly to 6:39/km and 6:49/km through 34km, then he responded well with his quickest kilometre at 6:19/km to finish. That final kilometre was 30 seconds faster than his fourth, a useful sign of finishing strength. For the next race, aiming to hold the 12km rhythm deeper into the middle kilometres could bring his overall time down further.
