Race Day Weather
Cool conditions, layer up early
Runners will face a cool start at 47°F, gradually warming to 51°F by the finish. With humidity at 81% and a light breeze from the east-southeast at 7 mph, hydration will be key. A light rain is possible before the race, so a throwaway layer may be advisable during pre-race. Runners should maintain a conservative pace in the early laps to adjust for the rising temperatures.
