Kit and pacing
What it means
Dress for the cold start
Mornings are usually around 3°C. Gloves, a hat and an old top you can throw away at the start are worth packing, and warm up for longer than usual: cold muscles take a few kilometers to get going.
Expect wind
Wind was 15 km/h on a typical morning here. Run in a group on exposed stretches, and aim for even effort rather than even splits: time lost into a headwind isn't all won back with it behind you.
The weather varies a lot
Race mornings here have ranged by 9°C from year to year. Pack for both, and settle your kit and pacing from the forecast in the last few days.
