Mild start, adjust pace wisely

Runners will face temperatures rising from 58°F at the start to 65°F, with high humidity at 82%. There will be a light headwind early on from miles 1-3 and again from miles 11-12, which may challenge pacing. Runners should consider starting conservatively to combat the humidity and adjust their hydration strategy, especially as the temperature climbs.
