Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Georgia Burdock #7842 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Fast Start, Solid Close for a Strong 5K Georgia ran 5.00 km in 21:41, averaging 4:20/km. She finished 80th overall and 26th in the female 1825 category, placing inside the top 10% overall in a field of 5,624. Her opening kilometre was the quickest at 4:00, and she reached 2 km in 8:11 (4:05/km average). The middle section eased to 4:37 for both km 3 and km 4, before she lifted again with a 4:18 final kilometre. That late pickup is a good sign, especially in a fast evening 5K through Canary Wharf. From a coaching view, the key opportunity is pacing: a slightly more even effort after the very sharp first kilometre could help carry more speed through km 34 while keeping that strong finish.
