Cool morning, light wind, possible rain

Runners will face temperatures starting at 49°F and rising to 53°F, with a light wind from the SW at 12 mph. Humidity will be high at 82%, prompting a strategy to start conservatively. Light rain is possible, so a throwaway layer may be advisable during the pre-race wait.
