Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Jonty Michael #1351 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Steady 5K pacing with a quickest closing kilometre Jonty ran 5.00 km in 25:13, averaging 5:02/km. His pacing was very even across the race: 5:03, 5:02, 5:05, 5:05, and 5:01 per km, with just 4 seconds between his fastest and slowest full kilometres. He closed with his best kilometre, a strong sign of control late in the run. He finished 1,333rd of 5,624 overall, placing in roughly the top 24% of the field, and 246th in the male 2630 division. Position improved from 1,469th at 1 km to 1,284th by 3 km before slipping slightly over the final 2 km. In a fast evening 5K through Canary Wharf, the consistency stands out; next time, aiming to hold the 5:01 final-km rhythm from 3 km onward could trim more time.
