Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Theo Pickles #1415 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Strong Finish Lifted the Final Kilometer Theo ran 5.00 km in 27:37, averaging 5:31/km. He placed 1907th of 5624 overall, 1182nd of male finishers, and 207th in the Male 1825 division. That puts him ahead of roughly 66% of the field. In a fast evening 5K through Canary Wharf, that final result was built on a notably quicker closing section. His opening 2 km were steady at 5:26 and 5:30, then pace eased slightly to 5:41 and 5:43 through km 3 and 4. The standout stat was the last kilometre: 5:18, his quickest of the race and 25 seconds faster than km 4. He also gained places early, moving from 1978th at 1 km to 1830th at 2 km. As a coachs note, keeping km 34 closer to his early pace would likely bring the overall time down further.
