7 Miles - Hains Point

It was another incredibly humid morning, but I got an early start and was out running by 5:45am.  The first mile was faster than I wanted because I seemed to always be sprinting to catch a green light as I got out of the DC roadways and into the park.  I slowed down once I was in the park and then tried to increase my speed a bit each mile.  I ended up running 7 miles, 5ish in the park and the rest on the streets and on the Mall.
