Maui Marathon
Race Day Weather
Warm start, steady climb ahead
Runners will face a warm start at 71°F, with temperatures rising to 76°F by the finish. Winds will start as a headwind in the first mile, transitioning to a tailwind from miles 3 to 17, providing relief during the gently rolling course. Runners should consider adjusting their pace early due to the heat and humidity, especially during the middle miles where conditions are most favorable.
The finish is 14 miles from the start, so we look at it at 2 points, not just the start line. In a typical year, at 9:00/mi, you start at 71° and finish around 8:55 AM in 76°.
