United Airlines NYC Half
Race Day Weather
Cool conditions, steady tailwinds
Runners will face cool temperatures starting at 37°F and peaking at 43°F. A tailwind will assist from miles 2 to 5 and again from 10 to 13, providing beneficial conditions on the gently rolling course. Given the consistent crosswinds in segments, especially around miles 1, 6-9, and 12-14, runners should maintain a steady pace and focus on hydration to combat the low humidity.
