Cool start, warming finish
Runners will face a temperature rise from 48°F at the start to 61°F by the finish. A light SE wind at 10 mph may provide a slight tailwind, but won't significantly impact performance. With humidity around 60%, pacing should be steady, and runners may need to adjust their hydration strategy to stay comfortable.
