Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Victor Chu #5449 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Steady 5K with a strong third kilometre Victor ran 5.00 km in 29:19, averaging 5:51/km at Run The Wharf in Canary Wharf. He finished 255th in the male 3135 division and 2303rd of 5624 overall, placing around the top 41% of the field. His fastest kilometre was km 3 in 5:35, and his opening 3 km were solid at 17:05 total (5:41/km average). His pacing showed some good mid-race strength: 5:41, 5:50, 5:35, then 6:16 and 5:59. That makes km 4 the main point to target in future efforts, as it was 41 seconds slower than his best kilometre. Tightening that late-race drop could bring his overall average closer to the pace he held through 3 km. This closed-road evening 5K suits controlled pacing, and he showed a good platform to build from.
