Mystery Mountain Marathon
Race Day Weather
Cool start, warming finish
Runners will face a temperature rising from 40°F at the start to 69°F by the end. With light winds from the NNE at 6 mph, conditions will remain calm. Given the humidity at 61%, pacing strategies should adjust as temperatures rise, encouraging runners to stay hydrated and consider starting conservatively.
This course drops 984 ft to its low point and back, so we forecast it at 2 points, not just the start line. At 9:00/mi, you start at 42° and finish around 11:55 AM in 59°.

Race Info
Marathon and 12-mile trail races traversing difficult, sometimes technical but stunningly beautiful trails, featuring panoramic views of fall foliage displayed on the surrounding mountains. Climbing and descending for about 5,500 feet of elevation gain, runners will enjoy single track, rugged mountain bike, and smooth horse trails while running over and around Fort Mountain, passing the mysterious rock wall built at the top of the mountain over 1,000 years ago.
