Race Day Weather
Cool morning, strategic wind shifts
Runners will face a temperature rise from 47°F at the start to a peak of 65°F by the finish, with average winds at 10 mph from the NNE. The course's rolling terrain will present challenges, especially with crosswinds in the early miles and a tailwind from mile 5, offering a boost on the descent. Runners should adjust pacing early on and remain mindful of wind conditions, especially during the final mile headwind.
