Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Jide Yusuff #1697 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Fast Opening 1K Set Up a Solid 5K Jide ran 5.00 km in 24:31, averaging 4:54/km. He placed 1,163 of 5,624 overall, 762nd male, and 101st in the male 3640 division. His quickest kilometre was the first in 4:28, and he stayed under 5:00/km through 3 km. In a large evening field through Canary Wharf, that gave him a strong early position. The pacing trend was clear: 4:28, 4:54, 5:01, 5:03, 5:06 per km. That is a 38-second spread from first to last kilometre, with the final 4 km averaging about 5:01/km. As a coachs note, the main opportunity is pacing control: opening a little closer to target pace could help him hold more speed from 35 km and finish with less drop-off.
