Gradual warmth, strategic pacing needed

Runners will face temperatures rising from 60°F to 73°F, with average humidity at 66%. A light tailwind will assist in the early miles but transitions to headwinds around miles 5-6 and 20-23, which will be challenging. It is advisable to pace conservatively and stay hydrated, particularly as the heat increases later in the race.
