Runners will face temperatures starting at 59°F and peaking at 65°F, with high humidity at 96% making conditions feel warmer. A steady headwind will challenge runners during the first few miles, so pacing adjustments are crucial. The course features a significant descent from mile 8 to 9, where a tailwind will provide relief. Hydration should be prioritized due to the high humidity.
