Touch is on tonight. Sorry for the late notice
Touch Tonight at 5:30 @Bundy Field
Touch is on tonight at Bundy Field at 5:30 PM. We may lose the field at 7:00 so do try to get there ASAP. And bundle up, it will be freezing. See you there!
Saturday! You won’t regret it………maybe
Full disclosure, there is a very real risk of frostbite and hypothermia. Temp will be about 24F/-4C, but strong winds will bring that realfeel way down to 10F/-12C. You’ve been warned.
But on to the fun and games. We’ll be on the mall by Smithsonian metro at 9:30am. It should be good fun. A little sloppy running on fresh snow (if it sticks around) and the wind will present some passing challenge.
Wish We Were Warm Wednesday
Bundy field 5:30pm. I want to thank everyone that still comes out despite the cold, and limited time and field space. We’ve still been having lots of fun and staying active. It’s also a great for the mental health to have some midweek social activity.
Try to come early to boot up and warm up. We want to get started immediately at 5:30 since soccer takes over promptly at 7.
Monday at Bundy field 5:30pm
The weather should be just above freezing with no wind. Just right for those of us that have settled into the winter routine. We’ve been having some great fast paced play lately and I hope to see you all out there.
Saturday on the Mall
We’ll be back by the Smithsonian metro Saturday morning at 9:30am. Brace yourself for the cold. The realfeel is going to be about 18F/-9C. Much like last week, but with lighter wind. Still no precipitation.
Take advantage of the “warm” weather
It’s going to be above 40 degrees tonight, with a very light wind. Now is the time to get your run in before the temps plunge back into the low 20s.
Bundy field 5:30pm sharp. Please try to come as early as possible for warmup, changing boots etc, so that we can get started early or on time. There are soccer teams that start promptly at 7 which limits our playing time.
No touch for Monday
It seems like most people just aren’t thawed out from Saturday. Or the prospect of running on an inch of slushy snow in freezing temps with a strong, biting wind is just not appealing. Weird.
Conditions should be okay for Wednesday though. It will warm up to the mid 40s and with luck the chance of rain will keep diminishing.
Saturday is on despite the cold
9:30am, between Washington monument and WW2 memorial. If the west side of the mall or the tidal basin are open, we might move, but they’ve been closed off the last few weeks.
Temps will be below freezing, about 16F/-9C. Prepare yourself mentally and physically for the cold. Good news is there is no ice.
Wednesday, Bundy field, 5:30pm
Hooray! I think the temp will crack 40…positively tropical. We’ve been having some great runs on the turf field. So come on out if you need an excuse to stretch the legs mid-week after a long day of work
