Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Emily Thorn #5371 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Strong finish with steady pacing across 5K Emily ran 5.00 km in 32:48, averaging 6:33/km. She opened in 6:26, then stayed very consistent through the middle kilometres at 6:42, 6:38 and 6:37, before closing well with her second-fastest kilometre in 6:28. That gave her just a 16-second spread between fastest and slowest full kilometres, a solid sign of controlled pacing. Among 5,624 finishers, she placed 249th in the Female 3135 category. A notable stat: from 1 km to 4 km, her overall position improved from 3,062nd to 2,897th, showing she moved well through the field before the final kilometre. For future races, aiming to hold that opening rhythm a little deeper into the middle section could help bring the average pace closer to her strong finishing pace.
