January averages suggest mild daytime conditions and cooler nights. These regional temperatures can differ between harbour-side streets and higher ground. Average daily highs are 19.8°C and overnight lows 12.7°C. Average precipitation totals about 36 mm over the whole month. Rain preparation is sensible, but the total does not give the chance or timing of rain during the race. These are historical regional averages, not a forecast or race-hour temperatures; the coast, hills and start line may differ.

What to wear

  • Racing: a technical T-shirt or singlet with shorts is a useful starting point; adjust for your comfort and the forecast.
  • Waiting at the start: bring a removable warm layer and, if rain is forecast, a rain shell or poncho.
  • After finishing: keep a dry top and an extra layer in your finish bag.
  • These are editorial clothing suggestions. Check the forecast close to race day and adapt to your own comfort.
