Had same thing happen to me (not with my Boxster, another car) a few years ago... ran to bank and when I came out, Click, Click, Click. Luckily, the bank manager came out as this was happening and ran me over to Walmart to get a battery. (Shout-out to Suntrust Bank! That's what I call customer service!) It was a hot day too. I was concerned that it might be the alternator, but when checked, everything was fine.

As someone said, batteries can die suddenly on hot days as well...

My Boxster is probably due for a new battery - current one is coming up on 5 years old (in October).
