That doesn't matter, you can't control who's in the field any more than you can the weather. But rest assured Chicago gets a very competitive field.

Contrary to the doom sayer that started this thread, race day forecast is looking pretty good. Low to mid 40s at start, mid 50s by the end. Hight temp in low 60s by the afternoon. Maybe a little breezy, but I will take it.

The real reason the OP created this thread is he slacked off on his training and his last long run not surprisingly didn’t go well, so he wants to blame the weather for his poor performance. Typical adult child who doesn’t want to take any responsibility for his failures in life.
So…how about that forecast, eh?
This did not age well.

How about it? It's going to be 41 at race time and in the 40's and 50's until the 4 hour mark. It won't even hit 60 until the 5 hour mark.
You went home devastated.

At 88 degrees who gives a fudk
When I asked for the dew point 11 days ago, I got the response above from the OP.
Current forecast: 46 degrees with 30 dew point.
Race starts in 80 minutes.
43 degrees with slight wind makes it feel like 39 degrees, Dewpoint 33. Good air quality.
By 11am it will be a broiling 57.
OP stays home devastated with his AC turned up.

Current accuweather forecast for Chicago on October 9th is 88 degrees.
Before you tell me that it is too far out to predict I will tell you that accuweather was right on last year this far out and I was criticized last year for this same post.
CHANGE THE DATE TO THE LAST WEEK OF CHICAGO FROM HERE ON OUT. PLEASE
Let's see. An American Record, near World Record and the 2nd fastest debut by an American...imagine how fast it would've been without the "hot" weather.
OP is a DB.
