Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Giulia De Toma #5445 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Quick Opening Km, Strong Mid-Race Reset Giulia completed the 5K in 43:14, averaging 8:38/km. She covered the opening kilometre in 7:25/km, then settled into 8:40/km and 9:51/km through 23 km. A solid response followed at 4 km with her quickest stretch after the start, 8:21/km, before closing in 8:59/km. That rebound in the fourth kilometre stands out and shows she was able to regain momentum late in the race. She finished 1,760th female out of 5,624 overall participants, with 516th in the female 2630 division. For coaching focus, the key opportunity is pacing: the gap between the opening kilometre and later kilometres suggests a slightly more even start could support a steadier overall rhythm. In an evening Canary Wharf 5K built around Friday Night Lights social race format, she still found a mid-race reset and saw that through to the finish.
