3.11 (5K) Mile Run in 26:04

In the hottest day of the year to date, I decided to still go for a run and try to stick to the ocean along South Boston to have a little bit of a breeze. Temperature at 7:00 when I went running was 94 degrees with the humidity it was 102. I grinded out the run by running over 8 minute miles, just to get the mileage under the belt. I finished the 3.1 mile run in 26:04 for an average pace of 8:22 per mile and 419 calories burned. I spent whatever I had left on the last 400 meters so I could at least say that I finished the run strong even though the rest of the workout was nothing to write home about.
