Runners will face a temperature rise from 40°F at the start to a peak of 56°F. With a crosswind reaching 10 mph, pacing adjustments may be necessary in exposed areas. The high humidity at 95% suggests that runners should hydrate frequently, especially as temperatures climb. The flat course profile should aid in maintaining speed, but the wind may present challenges throughout.
