Seems like it'll be mid-high 60s with low in the 50s, I wouldn't call that great weather for a marathon. Perfect weather is low 40s and cloudy, as another poster said you should be chilly at the line.
I agree with others, many of the fall marathons need to be moved out 2-3 weeks.
I agree. Anything over 60 degrees is way too hot. I'm in the PNW, and I remember the first time I ran a half in temps over 60, many years ago. I was mystified by why I'd had such a rough time in the race, despite most of my training being in temps under 50, and I finally realized it was the heat. Anything from 35 to 50 is fine, no hotter.
