Cool start, warming finish

Runners will face temperatures starting at 58°F and rising to 72°F by the end. With light winds from the SW at 7 mph, conditions are manageable but may feel slightly cooler early on. As the race progresses, humidity at 62% will require pacing adjustments, particularly in the later laps. Runners should consider hydration strategies and potentially ease into their effort as temperatures climb.
