PM: 81.1-mile ride. HR 159.

Started out not feeling well, but then felt better. I planned mid-ride to try for a 100, but I went through 4 bottles in 2.5 hours, so I stopped at a Dollar General and seriously reloaded. Ended up with a really good ride. My longest by time and distance.

Night: 3.2-mile walk. HR 88.

After-dinner walk with Megan. House inspection was today. Doctor's appointment was well. I got on some meds finally. Feel pretty solid, though some of them will take a bit to kick in.

The home inspection was an amzing experience and you learn a lot about the property. Many of the areas are in great shape. A few issues we are negotiating and we are going to buy a dinning room table set from them, which we liked. Strange process, but I am learning a lot.

I started packing like a mad man. I went a few places and picked up boxes and slavaged/stole a bunch from the backs of stores. I went around at night and got some that were on a cart out back of a strip mall and they were Frito-Lay boxes, which ended up being amazing, though technically the property of Frito-Lay as they are returnable.

Thursday Night Dirt. Hot and uptempo ride. About 19.3 MPH for just under 90' and HR was 170 BPM. We stopped for beers at someone's house who lives on the loop as we have done the last few weeks. After we did some racing down Sheldon. I set a few PRs on the segements after a few beers :-)
