Hoptown 5K
Race Day Weather
Cool start — fast day potential, moderate wind
A cool 48°F at the start line is ideal for fast times — expect to warm up quickly once you're moving. Temperatures rising to 58°F through the course will gradually increase perceived effort in the second half. Moderate winds around 15mph may affect pacing on open sections of the course. Moderate humidity at 68% is worth noting for effort level, especially in later miles.
