Course
The marathon uses a Houston city-road course that rewards even pacing more than hill strength. The race has enough field depth to help runners settle into goal pace early.
Race-day weather
January in Houston can be cool and quick, but humidity, wind, or sudden warmth are always possible. Runners should be ready to adjust effort if the Gulf Coast shows up.
