Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Karl Bagherzadeh #7962 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Fast Opening Kilometre Set Up a Solid 5K Karl ran 5.00 km in 25:56, averaging 5:11/km. His quickest kilometre was the first in 4:48, and he reached 2 km in 9:55. He placed 1,487th of 5,624 overall, 948th male, and 183rd in the male 3135 division. His kilometre splits were 4:48, 5:08, 5:26, 5:20, and 5:16, showing a strong start before settling into the low-5:20s. The final 2 km were slightly quicker than kilometre 3, which was a good response late in the run. For the next outing, aiming for a slightly more even pace after the opening kilometre could help him carry that early speed deeper into the race, especially on a fast evening 5K like this.
