Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Irina Chumatova #6704 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Quick Opening Pace Set Up a Solid 5K Irina covered 5.00 km in 29:52, averaging 5:58/km at Run The Wharf in Canary Wharf. She placed 93rd in the Female 3640 division and finished ahead of more than half the field overall, placing 2428th of 5624. Her strongest section came early: 2 km in 10:55 at 5:27/km average, with the opening kilometre her quickest at 5:23. From 1 km through 4 km, her pace stayed relatively close, moving from 5:23/km to 5:53/km and reaching 4 km in 22:24. The final kilometre was 7:28, which accounted for most of the slowdown. As a coachs note, the first 4 km suggest a stronger overall time is available with a more even closing kilometre. This evening closed-road 5K is known for its fast city-centre setting, making that early rhythm a useful stat to build on.
