In March, San Francisco averages a high of 62°F (17°C) and a low of 49°F (9°C). Most runs feel like about 56°F (13°C) once you factor in a typical morning or evening start, so dress for that number rather than the thermometer. Cool, foggy, and remarkably steady — San Francisco rarely gets hot or truly cold.
