Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Harrison John #6262 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Strong negative split with a fast closing kilometre Harrison ran 5.00 km in 22:37, averaging 4:31/km at Run The Wharf. He finished 740th of 5,624, placing in the top 13.2% overall. In the Male 1825 division, he was 96th, and he steadily improved his position from 959th at 1 km to 740th by the finish. His pacing was a standout: 4:38, 4:42, 4:35, 4:28, and 4:15 per km. That is a clear negative split across the race, with his fastest kilometre saved for the end. He cut 27 seconds from first kilometre to fifth, which shows strong control and good finishing speed. On this fast evening 5K through Canary Wharf, the main coaching note is to consider starting a touch closer to 4:354:30/km, which could unlock a quicker overall time while keeping that strong finish.
