Runners will face a temperature rise from 60°F to 71°F, with high humidity at 94% adding to the discomfort. The wind will present a headwind in the first two miles, making pacing crucial early on. With a shift to a tailwind around mile 18, this offers a chance to recover speed, but runners should be mindful of hydration throughout due to the warm and humid conditions.
