Comfortable temps, moderate wind

Starting at 60°F, heat will be a factor from the gun — go out conservative and stay on top of hydration. Moderate winds around 19mph may affect pacing on open sections of the course. Moderate humidity at 72% is worth noting for effort level, especially in later miles.
