Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Graeme Jones #1772 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Strong Start, Fast Finish, Top-20 Age-Group Result Graeme covered 5.00 km in 22:38, averaging 4:31/km. He placed 19th in the M46-50 division and finished ahead of most of the 5,624-runner field, taking 743rd overall. His opening kilometre was his quickest at 4:24, and he closed well with a 4:27 final kilometre after holding 4:32-4:42/km through the middle of the race. The pacing pattern was solid overall: 4:24, 4:32, 4:42, 4:34, 4:27. He gained places through 4 km, moving from 22nd to 18th in his age group before a slight late change to 19th at the finish. That finishing kilometre shows good speed late on; with a slightly steadier third kilometre, he could likely trim more time next outing on this fast evening Canary Wharf course.
