Pistol Creek Run Marathon race day weather
Cool start — fast day potential, big temp swing
A cool 41°F at the start line is ideal for fast times — expect to warm up quickly once you're moving. Temps will climb significantly to 57°F by later miles, so expect fading conditions as the race progresses. Light winds shouldn't be a major factor for pacing.

About the Pistol Creek Run Marathon
The Pistol is a weekend of loop races on the paved Alcoa-Maryville Greenway beside Pistol Creek in Alcoa, Tennessee, just outside Knoxville. The 100 mile, 100K and 50K start Saturday morning, a 50 mile starts Saturday at 8 PM, and 10 mile and 20 mile races run Sunday morning. Everyone repeats a USATF-certified loop of about 10 miles from the Springbrook Pool Center, and the path is lit at night. The 50K, 100K and 100 mile have a 32 hour limit.
