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 2°C. Pack gloves and a throwaway layer even if the forecast looks kind.
Be ready for rain
It rained on 3 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.
General guidance from past years' numbers. Check the forecast in race week.
