FAQ on NMDC Hyderabad Marathon

What about the weather in Hyderabad on the race weekend?
The weather in Hyderabad is generally pleasant, with temperatures of 23 to 29 degrees C. However, humidity may be as high as 50%. Sudden showers may be expected, and they are usually short. Runners are requested to dress appropriately and ensure they are sufficiently hydrated throughout the course.

Will the event be called off incase of heavy rain?
There have been sudden showers during the previous editions of the Hyderabad Marathon. The event went ahead despite these as they were just cloudbursts. Calling off the event due to unfavourable weather is at the discretion of the organizers.

There will be no refund of the registration fee in case the race is called off due to weather or any other acts of God (force majeure clauses) and the decision of the Race Director is final in this regard.
