Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Damilola Babington #3249 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Fast Opening Km, Strong Late Recovery Damilola covered 5.00 km in 34:42, averaging 6:56/km. Her quickest kilometre was the opener in 6:21/km, and she reached 2 km in 13:09 at 6:34/km average pace. She finished 294th in the Female 3135 division, with a field of 5,624 overall. The pacing pattern was clear: 6:21, 6:48, 7:18, 7:27, then a rebound to 6:49 for the final kilometre. That late pickup is a useful positive, especially after the mid-race slowdown. As a coachs note, a slightly more controlled first kilometre could help preserve pace through 34 km and support a stronger overall time next outing. Run The Wharfs closed-road Canary Wharf 5K suits that kind of steady pacing well.
