Weather snapshot (AI-assisted text)

Mid-April in Bel Air, Maryland, typically brings mild and pleasant spring weather. You can generally expect temperatures to be comfortable for running, likely in the 50s or 60s Fahrenheit. However, spring weather can be unpredictable, so be prepared for anything from a sunny, cool morning to a chance of rain.

Terrain & course feel (AI-assisted text)

As a 5K hosted by a high school in a suburban area, the course is highly likely to be on paved roads or sidewalks, possibly around the school campus or through local neighborhoods.
