Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Tommy King #2596 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Fast Opening 3K, Then Pace Drift in the Final 2K Tommy covered 5.00 km in 28:39, averaging 5:43/km. He placed 2,158th of 5,624 overall, 1,300th among men, and 224th in the male 1825 category. His opening kilometre was his quickest at 5:21/km, and he reached 3 km in 16:33 at an average of 5:31/km. The key trend was a strong first 3 km followed by slower closing kilometres of 5:58 and 6:09. He was moving up the field through 2 km, improving from 1,920th to 1,872nd overall, before position held steady and then slipped late. As a coachs note: the early pace clearly worked well, but a slightly more even effort after 3 km could help him hold speed deeper into the race. Run The Wharfs closed-road evening 5K format suited a quick start, and he took advantage early.
