Ring Running Series Marathon
Race Day Weather
Cool start — fast day potential, moderate wind, chance of rain
A cool 44°F at the start line is ideal for fast times — expect to warm up quickly once you're moving. Moderate winds around 15mph may affect pacing on open sections of the course. There's a chance of rain, so have a backup gear plan ready. High humidity (85%) will make it harder to cool down through sweat — increase fluid intake accordingly.

Race Info
The Ring Running Series Marathon is held on the Formula 1 Grand Prix circuit at the Hockenheimring in Hockenheim, Baden-Württemberg. The marathon runs nine laps of the 4.46 km circuit plus a lead-in from the start at the Ostkurve entrance, and the finish is on the original Formula 1 start-finish line in front of the Motodrom. The course is flat, fully asphalted, closed to traffic and AIMS-certified. A half marathon (four laps) starts an hour after the marathon, usually in late November.
