HR elevated. My dad has been having some health issues so my anxiety is up even with meds, but they do keep it lower.

Night: 4.4 miles, averaged 12:03. HR 127.

Nice night for a jog, but I had to crap the entire time and almost got taken out by a car.

We were scheduled for a beer stop and pool swim. I offered to sponsor beer this week. I felt very anxious and awful riding to Tom's. I was going to just drop off money and go home, but felt somewhat better as we road to the standard meetup point. I volunteered to lead B group. I started out okay, but died and felt very bad. Asked if people knew the route and would look out for each other as I was leaving. Limped back to Tom's as the cooler was outside and had 2 ciders. Grabbed my bag and limped home. Decided a few days off or at most walking might be beneficial.

Off.

Closed on the house today. Did the walkthrough and signed papers and wet back over after for a bit. I didn't want to leave. Went to White Horse Inn and had a fabulous dinner in the open air. We went there for our anniversary. It's a historical and Michigan gem.
