Atlanta Marathon
Race Day Weather
Cool start, steady warming trend
Runners will face a temperature increase from 42°F at the start to 62°F by the finish, with average humidity at 56%. A light tailwind will assist runners from Miles 1 to 5, but headwinds will challenge them in segments from Miles 7 to 12 and 22 to 26. Adjust pacing to conserve energy during tougher stretches, especially in the headwinds, and stay hydrated as temperatures rise.

Race Info
The Atlanta Marathon (branded Publix Atlanta Marathon for sponsorship reasons) is an annual marathon held in Atlanta, Georgia, except in 2021 where it was held in Hampton, Georgia on the premises of Atlanta Motor Speedway because of governmental restrictions. On the same day, a half marathon is also held, and some years also feature a 5K run. Wikipedia
