Rochester Half Marathon
Race Day Weather
Comfortable start, adjust for heat
Runners will face temperatures rising from 54°F at the start to 67°F by the finish, with average humidity at 74%. A light tailwind will assist from miles 1-5, but a headwind will challenge runners between miles 8-14, especially during the climb at mile 11. With humidity levels high, pacing adjustments are recommended to conserve energy, particularly in the latter stages of the race.
