Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Adam Kara #6459 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Strong finish and improving pace across the 5K Adam ran 5.00 km in 25:03, averaging 5:00/km. He placed 161st in the male 1825 division and finished in the top 24% overall (1297 of 5624). His pacing tightened well after the opening kilometre: 5:10, 4:56, 5:05, 5:02, then a fastest final kilometre of 4:52. That closing kilometre was 18 seconds quicker than the first, a good sign of control and late-race strength. He moved up steadily through 4 km, improving from 1493rd overall at 1 km to 1281st by 3 km and holding that through 4 km. For the next outing, aiming to bring the first kilometre closer to overall race pace could help unlock a slightly faster total time at this fast evening Canary Wharf 5K.
