Emerald Isle Marathon
Race Day Weather
Comfortable temps, moderate wind
Starting at 65°F, heat will be a factor from the gun — go out conservative and stay on top of hydration. Moderate winds around 15mph may affect pacing on open sections of the course. Moderate humidity at 70% is worth noting for effort level, especially in later miles.
