Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Ben Eades #916 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Strong Finish and Well-Controlled 5K Ben ran 5.00 km in 21:59, averaging 4:23/km. In a field of 5,624, he finished 610th overall, placing in roughly the top 11%. He was 383rd of the men and 121st in the male 2630 division. This Canary Wharf evening 5K is built for quick running, and he made good use of the setting with a consistent effort. His opening 2 km were his steadiest section at 4:24 and 4:22/km, followed by a slower 3rd km at 4:36/km. He then recovered well with 4:28/km for the 4th km and closed fastest in 4:11/km. That final kilometre was 25 seconds quicker than his slowest, which shows strong finishing speed. To lower this time further, the main opportunity is keeping the 3rd kilometre closer to early-race pace.
