Each row is the race's date that year where we know it, else the same weekday nearest its usual date. Temperatures and humidity are averaged over 07:00 to 11:00 local time, rain is the total over those hours, and conditions are the commonest over the morning. The half marathon starts at 09:00.
Kit and pacing
What it means
Warm: adjust your goal pace
Around 17°C on race morning costs most runners time. Plan to run a few seconds per kilometer slower than in cool weather, take on fluid and salt at every station, and wear light colors and sun cream.
Humid mornings
Humidity is usually around 83%, so sweat evaporates slowly and it feels warmer than the thermometer says. Pace on effort, not just the watch.
The weather varies a lot
Race mornings here have ranged by 14°C from year to year. Pack for both, and settle your kit and pacing from the forecast in the last few days.
