Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Lucy Clark #5663 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Quick Start, Then Steady to the Finish Lucy covered 5.00 km in 32:20, averaging 6:28/km. She placed 2,902 of 5,624 overall, with a strongest position through 2 km at 2,674 overall. Her opening kilometre was her quickest at 6:06, followed by 6:21 for 2 km, giving her a solid 12:27 through halfway to 5K pace. From 3-5 km, her splits were 6:45, 6:44 and 6:26. That finish was a good response after the middle section, showing she could lift the pace again late. The main opportunity is pacing: the gap from 6:06 in the first kilometre to the 6:44-6:45 range later suggests a slightly more controlled start could help her hold speed more evenly across all 5 km. Run The Wharfs closed-road evening format suited a strong opening and a composed finish.
