Cool start, mild finish

Runners will face a temperature range from 39°F at the start to 51°F by the finish, with a gentle rise. Winds will be light, making it a non-factor, but gusts may create brief challenges. Humidity is moderate at 59%, so runners should stay hydrated and adjust pace conservatively in the warmer conditions later in the race.
