Fall Creek Falls Trail Marathon race day weather
Cool start — fast day potential, big temp swing
A cool 44°F at the start line is ideal for fast times — expect to warm up quickly once you're moving. Temps will climb significantly to 60°F by later miles, so expect fading conditions as the race progresses. Light winds shouldn't be a major factor for pacing.

About the Fall Creek Falls Trail Marathon
The Fall Creek Falls Trail Marathon is run in Fall Creek Falls State Park near Spencer, Tennessee, centrally located between Nashville, Chattanooga and Knoxville. The marathon is new for 2027 and covers two laps of the half marathon loop on the park's Upper Loop Trail, which starts and finishes at the pavilion by the Betty Dunn Nature Center and is marked with white and red blazes. A 50K and a half marathon have been held on the same weekend since 2015, and the organizers cite the park's waterfall as the highest free-falling waterfall east of the Rocky Mountains.
