Fort Worth Marathon
Race Day Weather
Mild start, headwinds challenge early
Runners will face temperatures starting at 55°F and rising to 70°F, with humidity at 66%. A headwind will be present during the first half of the race, particularly from miles 2 to 8, requiring pacing adjustments. Light rain is possible, so a light layer may be beneficial for the pre-race wait. Runners should prepare for crosswinds in the latter segments, particularly miles 13-16.
