Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Markus Seebacher #6355 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Fast Finish and Consistent 5K Pacing Markus ran 5.00 km in 24:46, averaging 4:57/km. In a field of 5,624, he placed 68th in the M45 division. His pacing was steady across the full distance: 4:54, 5:01, 5:08, 4:58, and 4:47 per km. That closing kilometre was his quickest, a strong sign of good control and finishing strength. A useful stat: his first 2 km took 9:54 (4:57/km average), while his final 2 km took 9:45 (4:53/km average), showing a slight negative trend late in the race. The third kilometre was the slowest, but he responded well with two quicker closing kilometres. For a fast evening 5K through Canary Wharf, this was a well-managed effort; tightening that mid-race dip could bring the overall average down further.
