Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Paolo Cane #7779 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Strong finish lifted the overall 5K pacing Paolo ran 5.00 km in 23:49, averaging 4:45/km. He placed 54th in the Male 4145 division and finished ahead of most of the field, 1001st of 5624 overall. His km splits were 4:40, 4:46, 4:56, 4:52, and 4:37, with the fastest running coming in the final kilometre. The key stat is the close: the last km was 19 seconds quicker than his average pace and 15 seconds quicker than the opening km. After a small slowdown through km 3, he regained pace well and finished with his best split of the race. That finishing speed is a good sign; with a steadier middle section, he could turn that late strength into a faster overall 5K on this quick Canary Wharf course.
