Marathon #2

It's set, I'm in (for the Quebec City Marathon on August 26th) ... and a vacation it will be.
It should be between 60 and 70 on Marathon Day

Average high = 70°F
Average low = 50°F
Mean = 61°F

If it turns out to be 90 ... I'll take it as a sign from the Almighty that I am never to do another marathon again.
