RDC Half Marathon
RDC Half Marathon race day weather
Comfortable temps, big temp swing
Mild 51°F temps at gun time mean comfortable early miles without overheating risk. Temps will climb significantly to 71°F by later miles, so expect fading conditions as the race progresses. Light winds shouldn't be a major factor for pacing. Moderate humidity at 67% is worth noting for effort level, especially in later miles.

About the RDC Half Marathon
The RDC Half Marathon starts and finishes in the parking lot beside the movie theater at The Streets at Southpoint in Durham. After a loop of just under 2 miles around the mall, the course joins the American Tobacco Trail and heads south toward Chatham County through forest and farmland, turning around just after mile 7 and coming back to the mall. The course is USATF-certified, with a high point of about 404 feet.
