Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Hannah Smith #4430 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Strong negative split with a fast final kilometre Hannah ran 5.00 km in 27:02, averaging 5:24/km. She finished 1,767th of 5,624, placing 499th among women and 171st in the female 2630 division. In a fast evening 5K through Canary Wharf, that steady progression stood out. Her pacing improved through every kilometre: 5:48, 5:26, 5:29, 5:20, then a quickest closing kilometre of 5:00. That is a 48-second gain from first to last kilometre, and she moved up from 2,190th at 1 km to 1,767th at the finish. As a coachs note, the finish suggests there was a little more available earlier; aiming for a slightly quicker opening kilometre while keeping this controlled build could trim more time next race.
