Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Victoria Dodd #272 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Fast Finish Secured a Clear Womens Win Victoria ran 5.00 km in 17:47, averaging 3:33/km. She finished 1st overall and 1st in the female 1825 category, placing 96th out of 5,624 runners overall. In a large evening 5K known for its quick city-centre route, that is a strong front-of-field result. Her pacing was very steady: 3:35, 3:31, 3:34, 3:39, then 3:30 for the final kilometre. She moved from 5th female at 1 km to the female lead by 2 km and held it the rest of the race. The closing kilometre was her quickest, which shows good control and finishing strength. The main opportunity is the 4th kilometre, where pace dipped slightly; tightening that section could bring the overall time down further.
