Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Katie Robinson #5435 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Strong negative split with a fast finishing kilometre Katie completed the 5K in 24:44, averaging 4:56/km. She finished 1211th of 5624 overall, 272nd female, and 46th in the female 3135 category. Her team was Thursday. In a large evening field through Canary Wharf, that placed her in roughly the top 22% overall. The clearest stat is the progression across the race: 5:17, 5:05, 5:00, 4:50, and 4:33 per km. She improved pace every kilometre and cut 44 seconds from the first kilometre to the last. She also moved up from 1586th overall at 1 km to 1211th at the finish, gaining 375 places, including 137 among women. That finishing speed stands out. For next time, a slightly quicker opening kilometre could bring the overall time down further while keeping this strong closing pattern.
