You think I can pull it all before Tuesday? Also, if you suggest weapons, I am in a college dorm, so those are somewhat hard to access and conceal.

I don't know where you might find some, mine is from military personel (I was not a service member but I did recieve training), and personal contacts etc. It's know you know locally for that. Look up veteran owned gyms and studios and ask around there.

Food prep takes time, about a week. You may be SOL for that being ready by Tuesday, but the knowledge and equipment could be invaluable.

I have food in one dresser drawer and some in a mini-fridge.

What is SOL?

Sh*t Out of Luck

Ok

The stuff in the fridge is what you want to preserve

You might be able to do the mini-fridge and have things saved if power goes out for an extended period.

buddy if ur plan is to prep for tuesday youre way behind

Agreed.

That's just some oranges, bread treats, and some cheese sticks. I have access to food from dining courts, and I have a case of water and several energy drinks.

I know.

Alrighty then Spooky

i feel like i need more preps and i been prepping for 10 years

I'm screwed, aren't I?

Go by dry food goods... Instant Noodles

etc

I am close to home, so I can go there if needed.

Good plan, but you may not be able to walk there safely

It's about 70 miles away.

Over the plains of Central Indiana.

How fit are you?

How many miles a day could you walk with 40lbs on your back?

I run Spartan Races, but I've been recovering from a slight knee injury. I can run 30 miles with minimal clothing and some water, and I do have a bike (a crappy one at that).

Also, do you have wet and cold weather gear?

It's been a year since I pulled that stunt though. I do have gear for cold weather.

Not for wet, but I've got a pretty solid Schmindt jacket that does a good job.

Ok so with a bike and an injury, say 10-15 miles a day on roads, since you're in the plains.

It's a very mild injury. I feel comfortable running 3 miles with no weight.

Food and gear is the thing though

so, you're looking at a realistic 4-8 day journey.

I'm just trying to prepare for something. Lafayette is a pretty quiet town, but I don't want to take chances.

My parents could come get me.

Have them pick you up from school on Monday?

Take absences for your classes for the week?

My mom is doing that so I can go vote. I might be able to grab some stuff then.

I'd chill with your folks for the week

I don't think I can do that, but I might talk to her about it.

Again, I don't think anything bad will happen here at Purdue, but I want to be ready. This weekend I'm going to prepare one of my bags with supplies.

You guys know more than me though.
