Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Stuart Boyne #547 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Top-3 age-group finish with a controlled 5K Stuart ran 5.00 km in 20:38, averaging 4:07/km. The standout stat was 3rd place in the Male 55+ division, along with 405th overall out of 5,624 starters. He also finished 235th among men. In a large evening 5K through Canary Wharf, that age-group result is a strong marker of competitive form. His pacing was steady across the full distance: 4:00, 4:06, 4:13, 4:16, then a closing 4:05 per km. That final kilometre was his second-fastest, a good sign of finishing strength after a small mid-race slowdown. As a coachs note, the key opportunity is to hold closer to early-race rhythm through kilometres 3-4; that could move the overall time nearer to the low-20 or sub-20 range.
