Poulsbo Half Marathon
Race Day Weather
Cool start, warming up later
Runners will face a temperature rise from 50°F at the start to 68°F by race's end, with high humidity averaging 86%. Light winds at 5 mph will create a headwind in segments, notably during miles 2-3 and 8-10, requiring pacing adjustments. As the heat increases, conservatively adjusting pace and focusing on hydration will be crucial, especially during the rolling climbs from miles 4 to 6.
