Wizz Air Sofia Half Marathon
Race Day Weather
Cool start — fast day potential, warming through the race
A cool 49°F at the start line is ideal for fast times — expect to warm up quickly once you're moving. Temperatures rising to 61°F through the course will gradually increase perceived effort in the second half. Light winds shouldn't be a major factor for pacing. Moderate humidity at 78% is worth noting for effort level, especially in later miles.

Race Info
The Sofia half marathon is one lap of the marathon course, which the full marathon runs twice. It starts in front of the National Art Gallery on Battenberg Square, follows Tsar Osvoboditel Boulevard past Lions' Bridge, then runs west along Tsaritsa Yoanna Boulevard to the Lyulin tunnel and back. The return leg passes Vitosha Boulevard, the Vasil Levski Monument and Chavdar Bridge before finishing at the gallery after a pass by Alexander Nevsky Cathedral. It runs on the Sunday of race weekend over a flat to gently rolling city course at about 550 meters above sea level.
