As long as there is no wind shouldn't be to bad running around. There was a semi final in Hamilton against the hurricanes I went to that was below freezing, then the fog rolled in about 5 mins before full time.

Some 'perma' frost around today.
Down to minus 1.3 now, interesting to see what it will be like just before sun-up?
