From 2001 through last year, the six Baltimore Running Festivals have had mostly good running weather. Only one of the six events has had some rain (2004) and only twice have temperatures topped 70. The warmest Festival day was in 2005 when temperatures hit the upper 70s by afternoon. The coolest day was in 2003 when temperatures stayed in the 50s for most of the day. The chilliest starting time temperature was 37 just last year. When you average the six years you come up with a high of 66.7 and a low of 47.5 and that's just about what we expect for the 7th Baltimore Running Festival this weekend. The current forecast:

8:00 a.m.
Sky: Mostly clear
Temp: 49
Wind: West 5-10 mph

1:00 p.m.
Sky: Partly cloudy
Temp: 66
Wind: West 10-15 mph

See you on Saturday!
