Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Mahmut Can Asker #6420 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Steady 5K with a strong middle kilometre Mahmut Can Asker completed 5.00 km in 30:12, averaging 6:02/km. He finished 121st in the Male 4145 division and 2486th of 5624 overall. His quickest kilometre was km 2 in 5:52, helping him move up from 2580th at 1 km to 2354th at 2 km. Through 3 km he was still ahead of his final placing, sitting 118th in division. His pacing was consistent across the full distance: 6:01, 5:52, 6:06, 6:11, 6:04 per km, a spread of just 19 seconds between fastest and slowest kilometres. The main opportunity is in km 4, where the pace eased slightly before he recovered in the closing kilometre. In a fast evening 5K through Canary Wharf, that mid-race steadiness and late response are useful markers to build on.
