Pacific Northwest 5K
Race Day Weather
Comfortable temps, warming through the race
Mild 54°F temps at gun time mean comfortable early miles without overheating risk. Temperatures rising to 69°F through the course will gradually increase perceived effort in the second half. Light winds shouldn't be a major factor for pacing. High humidity (84%) will make it harder to cool down through sweat — increase fluid intake accordingly.
