Warm start, adjust pace early

Runners will face a steady temperature of 65°F at the start, rising slightly to 66°F by finish. With humidity at 78% and a light SE wind reaching 12 mph, maintaining hydration will be crucial. The first two miles will feature a crosswind, while runners can benefit from a tailwind during miles 3-4 and 7. Adjusting pace early is advisable to counter the humid conditions.
