High heat risk

Race-day temperatures can reach 86°F. Expect 15-25% higher sweat rates. Increase sodium to 800-1200 mg/hr and plan for more frequent fluid intake. Pre-cool with ice and cold fluids.

!

High humidity conditions

Humidity averaging 75% combined with warm temperatures impairs sweat evaporation. Your body works harder to cool itself. Reduce intensity expectations and increase fluid intake.

What to Expect at AdventHealth Great Clermont Triathlon

AdventHealth Great Clermont Triathlon is a Marathon (26.2 mi) marathon held in Clermont, FL, US. Based on 5 years of historical weather data, athletes can expect median race-day temperatures around 79°F.

Temperatures at AdventHealth Great Clermont Triathlon typically range from 68°F to 86°F. This puts the race squarely in high heat risk territory. Sweat rates can increase 15–25% in these conditions, meaning both fluid and sodium demands rise significantly. Athletes should plan for increased hydration, consider pre-cooling strategies, and expect pace adjustments — even well-trained runners slow 1–3% per 10°F above 60°F. Humidity is also a factor here, with levels reaching 85% on warmer days. High humidity impairs sweat evaporation — your body's primary cooling mechanism — so perceived effort rises even when temperatures look manageable on paper.

Marathon fueling is about precision. Current sports science supports 60–90g of carbohydrates per hour for events over 2.5 hours, with experienced athletes pushing up to 120g/hr using glucose-fructose combinations. Start conservative in the first hour (around 70% of target) and build to full intake by hour two. Given the heat potential at this race, sodium intake of 600–1000mg per hour becomes critical to offset sweat losses.

We do our best to keep race details accurate and up to date, but things can change and occasionally we simply get something wrong.
