Kit and pacing

What it means

  • Good racing weather

    Around 10°C is close to ideal for a fast time. Shorts and a vest are enough once you're moving; bring a throwaway layer for the wait in the start pen.

  • It can be cold

    The coolest morning here dropped to 3°C. Pack gloves and a throwaway layer even if the forecast looks kind.

General guidance from past years' numbers. Check the forecast in race week.
