Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Philip Edgington #6443 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Fast Finish and Strong Closing Kilometre Philip completed the 5K in 32:03, averaging 6:25/km across 5.00 km. His quickest section came at the end, with a final kilometre of 6:03/km, well ahead of his opening 4 km range of 6:24/km to 6:42/km. That gave him a sharp negative swing to finish, and his fastest and slowest kilometres were separated by just 39 seconds. Through 2 km he was averaging 6:25/km, then dipped slightly with kilometres 3 and 4 at 6:42/km and 6:31/km before closing hard. He placed 135th in the Male 4145 division in a field of 5,624 overall. On a fast evening 5K built around Canary Wharfs closed roads and after-work atmosphere, the standout stat was his finishing speed. For the next race, aiming to hold that final-kilometre rhythm a little earlier could bring his overall time down further.
