United States Air Force Marathon
Race Day Weather
Comfortable temps, big temp swing, chance of rain
Starting at 62°F, heat will be a factor from the gun — go out conservative and stay on top of hydration. Temps will climb significantly to 82°F by later miles, so expect fading conditions as the race progresses. Light winds shouldn't be a major factor for pacing. There's a chance of rain, so have a backup gear plan ready. Moderate humidity at 77% is worth noting for effort level, especially in later miles.
