Cool start, warm finish ahead

Runners will face a cool start at 53°F in the high elevation, warming to 70°F by the finish. With light winds from the west, runners can expect a mix of tailwinds and crosswinds throughout the course. It will be crucial to pace conservatively early to adapt to the rising temperatures, especially during the significant climb from miles 3 to 8.
