The Driftless 10K+
The Driftless 10K+ race day weather
Comfortable temps, big temp swing
Mild 54°F temps at gun time mean comfortable early miles without overheating risk. Temps will climb significantly to 73°F by later miles, so expect fading conditions as the race progresses. Light winds shouldn't be a major factor for pacing. High humidity (83%) will make it harder to cool down through sweat — increase fluid intake accordingly.

About The Driftless 10K+
The Driftless 10K+ covers 6.6 miles, the first half of the half marathon course. It starts on the Great River Road about a mile north of Harper's Ferry, runs the gravel of Red Oak Road beside the Mississippi River, and turns back onto the highway near the historic Wexford Church for an uphill finish. Runners are bused back to Lansing afterward. It is held on the second Saturday of October.
