Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Ben Claridge #5052 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf On Speed Zone

Explosive Speed Over a Very Short Effort He covered 0.30 km in 53 seconds, averaging 2:59/km. In a field of 5,624, he placed 13th overall, 10th in the Male Elite category, and 4th in Male Elite 2630. That is a notably strong result, especially given how little time there was to separate positions. This was a pure speed effort rather than a sustained run, so the key stat is the pace: sub-3:00/km from start to finish. At an event known for its fast evening atmosphere through Canary Wharf, that kind of early acceleration stood out. To move even higher overall, the next step would be sharpening top-end speed and start execution over similarly short efforts.
