Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Daisy O'Callaghan #6343 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Fast Opening 2K, Then a Mid-Race Fade Daisy ran 5.00 km in 24:44, averaging 4:57/km. She placed 273rd of female finishers and 82nd in the female 1825 division, in a field of 5,624. Her first 2 km were the strongest part of the race: 4:48 and 4:57, reaching 2 km in 9:44. From there, the pace shifted to 6:41/km for the third kilometre and 7:26/km for the fourth before a quick final segment brought the overall average back under 5:00/km. That contrast is the key stat from this run. For a faster overall 5K next time, aim to hold the first 2 km closer to the pace you can sustain through 4 km. Run The Wharfs evening closed-road setup in Canary Wharf suits that kind of steadier pacing well.
