As a lot of runners know, your marathon performance can depend much on what the weather does. Ideal weather is said to be about 50 degrees with humidity on the lower side. Weather is one reason planning to run a marathon in Florida is so iffy becuase the temperature could be freezing one day and beach weather the next. With the Gasparilla Marathon seven short days away, it is time to pay attention to the likely weather and plan accordingly. As of now, weather looks great with temps just below 50 for the low on Sunday and no rain.
Now then, lets see and test some national and local weather outlets to see who can most closely predict Sunday's weather seven days out!
