Runtastic HEBER
Race Day Weather
Cool start, warming finish
Runners will face a cool start at 48°F, gradually warming to 70°F by the finish. With headwinds throughout, particularly challenging between miles 5 and 13, pacing adjustments may be necessary. Hydration should be prioritized as humidity sits at 54%, especially as temperatures rise in the valley. A light layer may be beneficial during the pre-race warm-up, but runners can shed it as they descend.
This course drops 3,245 ft from start to finish, so we look at it at 3 points, not just the start line. In a typical year, at 9:00/mi, you start at 48° and finish around 7:57 AM in 60°; typical start-line conditions say 53° then.
