Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Emma Lynam #7856 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Strong finish with accelerating 5K pacing Emma ran 5.00 km in 20:47, averaging 4:09/km. She placed 7th in the female 3135 division, 51st female, and 427th of 5,624 overall. In a large evening 5K through Canary Wharf, that is a strong division result. Her pacing was controlled and progressive: 4:13, 4:17, 4:16, 4:08, then 3:55 for the final kilometre. She improved position steadily from 585th at 1 km to 427th at the finish, and from 10th to 7th in her division. The standout stat is the closing kilometre, 22 seconds quicker than average pace. As a coachs note, the finish suggests capacity to press slightly earlier in the middle kilometres while keeping this strong close.
