Malmo - As I said, temperatures can vary greatly over the course of a
marathon. I think you will find that reasonably fast times have been run
when the temperature climbed into the low 70's during the cou
just from results and race reporting.

Generally high pressure brings low humidity. Low pressure high humidity.

Temperature and humidity would seem to be more appropriate than temperature and barometric pressure. NYCM had a formula in place for Sunday's race where the standards for time incentives would be eased if both the temperature and humidity were at or above predetermined levels when the winner cross

Does anyone have a formula to calculate the effect of temperature on
perfomance?
