Race Day Weather
Cool start, warming up later
Runners will face temperatures starting at 50°F and rising to a warm 67°F, necessitating a conservative approach early on. Wind will be light at 8 mph with a mix of conditions throughout the course, but it won't significantly impact performance. As humidity hovers around 58%, hydration should be prioritized, especially in the later laps when temperatures climb. Adjust pacing accordingly to avoid fatigue as the heat increases.
