***Official 2025 Weather Thread***

Grass is getting pretty crispy on these warm afternoons. Hopefully cooler air will slow than down. I forgot where my sprinklers go.
 
I'm opening the F out of the windows next week. Can't wait for sleep.
Yes, we air the house out on occasion, but I installed a furnace and AC for a reason. If I lose sleep, it's not because of the weather. It's a pet peeve of mine when I visit someone in the winter and their house is too cold to shed your coat and they are dressed ready to walk out the front door or you sweat sitting at the kitchen table in the summer, all at the expense of saving a few bucks. If i want to enjoy the weather I can sit on the patio, but I'm going to be comfortable in my home--and you can come visit and enjoy the same.

Don't know why I turned this into a rant, enjoy your sleep!:):)
 
This will make training for my 50 mile ruck event much more agreeable next week! Yay!
Curious what ruck event you’re doing? Never done it before but have thought of incorporating that into my exercise. Didn’t know they had actual events for it though.

There are tons of events. Check out

If you are in the dsm area Scheels is hosting a 5, 10, and 20k event 10/4(I think). The way I look at it any organized event is a ruck event.

I think that Toppling Goliath in Decorah is doing an event with GoRuck next year. It should be an awesome weekend if they actually do it.

Forecast is still a bit far out, but looks like ideal tailgating conditions for Iowa State's first home game. Usually, that first game is a freaking sauna. Should have a great walk-up crowd.

This just means Iowa will be the sauna game.
