~8.6 miles @ ~10.7 min/mi

Sirens wail as multiple fire trucks, ambulances, and rescue vehicles race along University Blvd and deafen me as I trot through Wheaton. It's a warm afternoon, temperature near 90°F, and my attempt to maintain a sub-10 min/mi pace fails after the first five miles. I stop at the Kensington Post Office to check my mailbox and take shameless walk breaks on the hills from there to home.
