Cool start, warming trend ahead

Runners will face temperatures starting at 51°F and rising to 62°F by the finish, with humidity around 60%. Light winds from the NW will provide a headwind during the early miles and transition to a tailwind from miles 15-24, aiding pacing. It's advisable to start conservatively and hydrate frequently as conditions warm, especially during the climbs at miles 1-2 and 8.
