Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Rebecca Brooman #1878 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Strong negative split with a fast closing kilometre Rebecca ran 5.00 km in 28:30, averaging 5:42/km. She placed 23rd in the Female 5155 division, 668th female, and 2122nd overall out of 5624. Her divisional position improved steadily through the race, moving from 31st at 1 km to 23rd at the finish. The pacing was a clear strength: 5:50, 5:50, 5:44, 5:41, then 5:27 for the final kilometre. That is a 23-second improvement from first to last kilometre and a well-executed negative split profile across the full 5K. As a coachs note, this suggests good control early and strong finishing speed; a small next step would be aiming to bring the 5:445:41 rhythm slightly earlier while keeping that finishing kick. The evening closed-road Canary Wharf format suited a fast, progressive run.
