Florida Marathon
Race Day Weather
Cool start, warming trend ahead
Runners will face a temperature rise from 44°F at the start to 68°F by the finish, with an average humidity of 64% and a gentle SW wind at 11 mph. This warming trend suggests a need for pacing adjustments as the race progresses; starting conservatively is recommended to manage the heat later on.
Located in Melbourne on Florida’s Space Coast, between Miami and Jacksonville, east of Orlando and Tampa, the Publix Florida Marathon & 1/2 Marathon makes for a perfect warm winter running destination for runners of all ages and levels. It is held a month after the Disney Marathon. Like a Rock-n-Roll marathon, our event includes up to 12 musical acts along the course of the half and full marathon and half a dozen on the routes of the Sunshine State Lager 10K & Florida Eye 5k.
