Mornings in October can be quite chilly.
Bring a layer for waiting at the start, and if you race in short sleeves, use arm sleeves to stay warm early on.
The distance is short, so it isn't too demanding;
as long as you avoid an early over-pace, finishing is well within reach.
Busan is known for dwaeji-gukbap (pork and rice soup) and milmyeon (cold wheat noodles), and for Haeundae and Gwangalli beaches and Gamcheon Culture Village.
