Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Lauren Auguste #4511 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Fast Start, Strong Closing Kilometre Lauren ran 5.00 km in 24:20, averaging 4:52/km. She placed 1,132nd of 5,624 overall, 243rd among women, and 43rd in the female 3135 division. Her opening kilometre was her quickest at 4:35, and she finished well with a 4:38 final kilometre, the second-fastest of her race. The middle section drifted from 4:55 in kilometre 2 to 5:11 in kilometre 3, then improved to 5:03 in kilometre 4 before that sharp close. That pattern suggests good top-end speed and the ability to re-engage late. As a coaching note, aiming for slightly steadier pacing through kilometres 24 could help turn a strong start and finish into an even quicker 5K. Run The Wharfs closed-road evening format suited a fast outing.
