I'm shooting a marathon tomorrow. I'll be delivering hundreds of jpegs (Immediate delivery and the number rule out raw mode). I shoot raw 90% of the time. I'm embarrassed to say that I'm not an expert with the jeg picture styles. The day will be overcast and possible murky at points. It was the same last week for a 5k. I shot in standard mode and they came out fine. I will be using a 40D and 7Dii.

Suggestions? Maybe a custom setting?

I think you have answered your own question there.

Yeah, what John said.

If the images came out fine, then why even consider making any changes?

"Your" and "you're" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"They're", "their", and "there" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"Fare" and "fair" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one. The proper expression is "moot point", NOT "mute point".

It takes me about 10 secs to adjust a RAW image to my liking. Shooting in jpeg to save time seems absurd to me.

I think in this case the OP has to shoot JPEG as the images are required for immediate use directly from the memory card, with no option for post processing. This is probably the only time that not shooting RAW actually makes sense, otherwise I would always shoot RAW, even if it were to only transfer to the computer and have DPP convert the image using the in camera settings. Shoot JPEG and you can pull the card from the camera, plug it directly into a printer, and print images on site, without the need for a computer.
