Phoenix Half Marathon
Race Day Weather
Cool start — fast day potential, big temp swing
A cool 47°F at the start line is ideal for fast times — expect to warm up quickly once you're moving. Temps will climb significantly to 68°F by later miles, so expect fading conditions as the race progresses. Light winds shouldn't be a major factor for pacing.

Race Info
The Phoenix Half Marathon starts at El Reposo Park in south Phoenix and runs north on Central Avenue toward downtown. The route passes the Arizona State Capitol, follows the Washington and Central corridor past the Arizona State University downtown campus, and climbs onto the Hance Park deck. It continues up 3rd Street through midtown and loops through Steele Indian School Park before finishing inside the park. The course is a net descent through mostly flat city streets.
