Kilimanjaro Half Marathon
Race Day Weather
Hot start, big temp swing
A warm 77°F start means heat management is critical — consider dialing back your goal pace by 10-20 sec/mi. Temps will climb significantly to 96°F by later miles, so expect fading conditions as the race progresses. Light winds shouldn't be a major factor for pacing.
