Hottest day of running ever, including Grand Canyon stuff. Ran 5 miles early morning before the sun was up in Cabo. Then out on Old Mans surf line up I was talking with a local in between breaks and he said that he did buggy and motorcycle rentals out along Baja. We did some talking and after lunch he picked me up in a dune buggy with a cooler that I put a dozen Diet Cokes in and drove me 15 miles out into the desert mountains. I stashed Diet Cokes and Chips Ahoy along the way. 103 degrees today, with some humidity, and hit like a brick oven. I went through eight 20 ounce Cokes and still barely made it back. Very slow in the heat, clocking 9:10 average pace.
