The County Marathon
Race Day Weather
Comfortable temps, strong wind, chance of rain
Starting at 63°F, heat will be a factor from the gun — go out conservative and stay on top of hydration. Strong 21mph gusts could slow exposed stretches — tuck behind other runners when you can. There's a chance of rain, so have a backup gear plan ready. High humidity (81%) will make it harder to cool down through sweat — increase fluid intake accordingly.
