Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Kade Answer #877 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Fast Opening Kilometre Set Up a Solid 5K Kade ran 5.00 km in 27:08, averaging 5:25/km. He placed 200th in the mens 1825 division and finished ahead of roughly 68% of the field overall (1794 of 5624). His opening kilometre was his quickest at 4:56, and he reached 2 km in 10:18 before settling into a steadier rhythm. The middle of the race was the main slowdown point, with kilometres 24 covered in 5:22, 5:48, and 5:44. He then closed well with a 5:19 final kilometre, his second-fastest split, which is a good sign of finishing strength. For future races, aiming to keep kilometres 24 a little closer to the opening pace could bring his overall time down. Run The Wharfs closed-road evening 5K format suits that kind of controlled, fast start-to-finish effort.
