Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Harry Swinbourne #191 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Fast Start Secured a Strong Top-5% Finish Harry ran 5.00 km in 19:28, averaging 3:53/km. He placed 252nd of 5,624, which puts him inside the top 5% overall, and 129th of the male field. In the Male 2630 division, he finished 39th. His first 2 km were particularly sharp at 3:39 and 3:46, reaching 2 km in 7:24 and moving up to 186th overall. From there, the pace eased to 3:55, 4:11, and 3:59/km across the final 3 km. That produced a positive split, with the opening 2 km averaging 3:42/km versus 4:02/km for the last 3 km. The standout stat is how much ground he gained early before holding on for a sub-19:30 result. For the next 5K, aiming for a slightly more even effort through 34 km could help convert that quick start into an even stronger finish.
