Kit and pacing
What it means
Mild: start a touch conservatively
Around 12°C feels fine at the start but warms up by the second half. Drink from the early stations rather than waiting until you're thirsty, and wear the lightest kit you have.
General guidance from past years' numbers. Check the forecast in race week.
