3 Country Marathon
Race Day Weather
Cool start, gradual warm-up
Runners will face temperatures starting at 44°F and rising to 53°F during the race. With a light wind at 4 mph, runners will experience tailwinds in the later miles, particularly from Mile 18 to 22, aiding their pace. Given the high humidity at 75%, it’s advisable to hydrate frequently and manage pace conservatively, especially early on. Pre-race conditions may feel chilly, so a throwaway layer is recommended.
