Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Dan Neal #167 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Strong negative split with a fast closing kilometre Dan ran 5.00 km in 19:31, averaging 3:54/km. He finished 261st of 5,624, placing 135th male and 42nd in the M26-30 division. That puts him in roughly the top 5% overall. In a fast evening 5K through Canary Wharf, he moved up steadily across the race. His kilometre splits were 4:00, 3:55, 4:01, 3:51, and 3:47. The standout stat is the finish: his last 2 km averaged 3:49/km, and his final kilometre was his quickest of the race. He improved from 361st at 1 km to 261st at the line, gaining 100 places overall. A small target for next time would be smoothing out km 3 so it matches the strong pacing he showed late on.
