Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Flo Parkes #7807 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Consistent 5K pacing with a strong middle section Flo ran 5.00km in 23:49, averaging 4:45/km. She placed 1000th of 5624 overall, 214th female, and 72nd in the female 2630 category. That puts her well inside the top 20% overall, with a compact spread of just 17 seconds between her fastest and slowest full kilometre. Her splits were 4:36, 4:48, 4:53, 4:48, and 4:45, showing a quick opening kilometre, a steady middle, and a tidy close to finish on pace. She improved her position through 4km, moving from 1025th to 969th overall before a small drop late on. On a fast evening 5K through Canary Wharf, the even pacing stands out; a slightly more controlled first kilometre could help hold those mid-race gains all the way in.
