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.
Be ready for rain
It rained on 4 of the last 10 race mornings. A bin bag or cheap poncho keeps you dry in the start pen; anti-chafe balm and socks that don't hold water help over the distance, and a cap keeps rain out of your eyes.
Humid mornings
Humidity is usually around 77%, so sweat evaporates slowly and it feels warmer than the thermometer says. Pace on effort, not just the watch.
