Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Emma-Jane Shearer #2029 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Steady 5K pacing with a strong opening 2 km Emma-Jane ran 5.00 km in 27:06, averaging 5:25/km. She was 1781st of 5624 overall, 506th female, and 173rd in the female 2630 category. Her fastest section came early: 10:36 through 2 km at 5:18/km, with identical 5:18 opening kilometres. From there, pacing stayed controlled rather than fading sharply. Km 3 was 5:40, followed by a rebound to 5:23 in km 4, then 5:28 in the final kilometre. That mid-race reset and quicker fourth kilometre are useful signs of composure. As a coachs note, the main opportunity is extending that 5:18/km rhythm beyond 2 km; doing that would bring down the overall time well in a future evening 5K like this Canary Wharf closed-road run.
