Atlanta Marathon
Race Day Weather
Cool start, warming trend
Runners will face a temperature rise from 42°F at the start to 62°F by the finish, with a moderate humidity of 56%. A tailwind will assist in Miles 1-5 and 17-18, but headwinds will challenge from Mile 7 through 12 and again in 22-26. Adjust pacing in the warmer mid-race segments and stay hydrated, especially as temperatures peak.

Race Info
The Atlanta Marathon (branded Publix Atlanta Marathon for sponsorship reasons) is an annual marathon held in Atlanta, Georgia, except in 2021 where it was held in Hampton, Georgia on the premises of Atlanta Motor Speedway because of governmental restrictions. On the same day, a half marathon is also held, and some years also feature a 5K run. Wikipedia
