Barossa Marathon
Race Day Weather
Comfortable temps, warming through the race, moderate wind
Mild 54°F temps at gun time mean comfortable early miles without overheating risk. Temperatures rising to 66°F through the course will gradually increase perceived effort in the second half. Moderate winds around 15mph may affect pacing on open sections of the course. Moderate humidity at 71% is worth noting for effort level, especially in later miles.
