Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Andreas Santi #2867 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Fast opening kilometre set up a solid sub-28-minute 5K Andreas ran 27:41 for 5.0km, averaging 5:32/km. His strongest stat was the opening kilometre in 4:42, well under his overall pace, and he was still inside 15:51 through 3km. He finished 332nd in the M26-30 division and 1928th of 5624 overall, placing him in the top third of the field. The pacing trend was clear: 4:42, 5:20, 5:50, 5:59, then 5:52 per km. That quick first kilometre gave him a strong early position, but the middle 2km were notably slower than the start. As a coachs note, aiming for a more even effort across kilometres 2-4 could help him hold pace deeper into the race. In a fast evening Canary Wharf 5K, sub-28 with a top-third overall finish is a solid result.
