Garmin Olathe Marathon
Race Day Weather
Cool start, warming trend ahead
Runners will face a temperature rise from 53°F at the start to 67°F by the finish, with humidity at 66% contributing to a gradual warmth. A light tailwind will assist from miles 2-12, but a notable headwind will challenge runners from miles 13-23. Hydration will be crucial, especially in the later stages, and pacing should be conservative to manage the heat as the race progresses.
