Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Sherese Leander #2623 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Steady sub-25 5K with strong early positioning Sherese ran 5.00 km in 24:54, averaging 4:58/km. She placed 287th of 5,624 women overall and 48th in the female 3135 division. Her opening 2 km were the quickest section of the race at 9:47 combined (4:53/km average), and she moved up from 1,267th overall at 1 km to 1,185th by 2 km. From 2 km to the finish, her pace stayed close to target: 5:08, 5:04, and 4:57/km across the final 3 km. That late return under 5:00/km was a good sign of control. As a coachs note, the main opportunity is to hold the 2 km rhythm a little longer through the middle of the race. In an event known for its fast evening city-centre setup, this was a well-managed effort with consistent pacing.
