Europe Marathon
Race Day Weather
Cool start, warming finish
Runners will face a temperature rise from 54°F at the start to 65°F by the finish, with humidity at 72% adding to the warmth. A headwind will impact runners in the first mile and again from miles 8 to 10, necessitating a more conservative pace early on. With a light tailwind from miles 11 to 16, runners can capitalize on this stretch, but should remain mindful of hydration as temperatures increase.
