Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Tom West #6208 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Fast Start, Steady 5K to a Sub-20 Finish Tom ran 5.00 km in 19:32, averaging 3:54/km. In a field of 5,624, he finished 264th overall, placing 138th among men and 44th in the male 2630 division. That puts him in roughly the top 5% overall. He also featured in the events On Speed Zone at this Friday-night Canary Wharf 5K. His opening kilometre was his quickest at 3:43, followed by a controlled run of 3:57, 3:58, 4:00, and a stronger closing kilometre of 3:56. The pacing was consistent after the fast start, with only 17 seconds between quickest and slowest kilometres. As a coachs note: slightly more restraint in the first kilometre could help him hold the middle kilometres closer to his finish pace.
