Elm Creek 10K race day weather
Comfortable temps, warming through the race
Mild 56°F temps at gun time mean comfortable early miles without overheating risk. Temperatures rising to 70°F through the course will gradually increase perceived effort in the second half. Light winds shouldn't be a major factor for pacing. Moderate humidity at 70% is worth noting for effort level, especially in later miles.

About the Elm Creek 10K
The Elm Creek 10K is a paved loop through Elm Creek Park Reserve in Maple Grove, Minnesota, held on the Saturday of race weekend. It runs north from Maple Grove Senior High School on the Medicine Lake Regional Trail, loops through the park past creeks, lakes, prairies and stands of woods, and comes back along the same trail to the school. Runners share the trails with the public. The 10K finishes at the high school, where the half marathon also starts and finishes.
