Mild temps, adjust for wind

Runners will face temperatures starting at 60°F and rising to 64°F by race end, with humidity at 73%. A headwind will challenge competitors from miles 1-9 and again from miles 18-24, so pacing adjustments will be crucial during these segments. Although the wind maxes out at 9 mph, it could still impact effort levels, particularly on the exposed stretches.

Race Info

The Historic Drawbridge Running Festival takes place each fall in St. Michaels, Maryland, on Talbot County's Eastern Shore. The event offers a marathon, half marathon and 5K, with courses that cross the area's historic drawbridges along the Chesapeake Bay waterfront. All three courses are USATF certified, and organizers describe the route as one of the flattest in Maryland. Proceeds support the Tilghman Island Volunteer Fire Company and the St. Michaels Fire Department. Source
