Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: James Galloway #1182 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Fast Opening 2K Set Up a Solid Sub-25 Finish James ran 5.00 km in 24:27, averaging 4:53/km. He placed 1,153rd of 5,624 overall, which puts him ahead of a large share of the field, and 142nd in the M31-35 division. His opening kilometre was his quickest at 4:36, and he reached 2 km in 9:21 at 4:40/km average. From there, the pace eased to 5:03, 5:09, and 4:55/km across the final 3 km. That late rebound in the last kilometre was a good sign after the mid-race slowdown. As a coachs note, the main opportunity is pacing: a slightly more controlled first 2 km could help him hold closer to his early rhythm deeper into the race. In a fast evening 5K through Canary Wharf, finishing under 25 minutes is a strong marker.
