Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Max Jenkinson #770 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Fast Start, Solid 5K, Slight Fade Late Max ran 5.00 km in 21:38, averaging 4:19/km. He finished 550th of 5,624 overall, placing in roughly the top 10%, and was 342nd of the male field. In the male 2630 division, he placed 108th. His opening kilometre was his quickest at 3:55, a strong start for an evening 5K through Canary Wharf. The pacing trend was clear: 3:55, 4:16, 4:26, 4:34, then a modest rebound to 4:29 in the final kilometre. That shows good early speed and a decent finish after the slower middle section. As a coachs note, a slightly more even first 3 km could help him hold closer to 4:20/km deeper into the race and convert that fast opening speed into a stronger overall time.
