Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Nike Falana #7810 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Strong Mid-Race Recovery and Fast Finish She completed 5.00 km in 42:09, averaging 8:25/km. Her fastest kilometres were km 2 and km 5, both at 8:03/km, and she improved from 8:55/km in the opening kilometre to finish with her joint-quickest split. She placed 222nd in the Female 3640 division out of a field of 5,624 overall. The pacing pattern showed a good response after the start: 8:55, 8:02, 8:49, 8:22, 8:03 per km. That gave her a strong close over the final 2 km, averaging about 8:13/km. For the next 5K, aim to bring km 1 closer to overall pace; matching the steadier rhythm from km 2 onward would likely lower the finish time. Run The Wharfs evening closed-road format suited a finish with momentum.
