Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Beth Piggott #817 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Fast Finish and Consistent 5K Pacing Beth ran 5.00 km in 21:57, averaging 4:23/km. She placed 93rd female out of 5,624 overall participants, with 30th in the female 2630 division. Her pacing was steady through 4 km: 4:26, 4:23, 4:27, and 4:29, keeping her average tightly controlled on a quick evening 5K through Canary Wharf. The standout stat was her final kilometre in 4:13/km, the fastest of the race and 16 seconds quicker than her slowest kilometre. She improved her overall position from 763rd at 1 km to 604th at the finish, gaining 159 places, and moved from 137th to 93rd among women. As a coachs note: this was a well-managed effort, and finding a slightly earlier push could bring the overall time closer to the low-21-minute range.
