Blue Nike running shoes with neon-lime laces
I was running yesterday around 3pm along Main Street in Lexington, near the Kentucky Theatre. I must've left them by the bike racks outside the theater after a quick water break. They're blue Nike running shoes, size 9.5, with a white swoosh and neon-lime laces. The left shoe has a tiny tear at the toe, and the inside tongue has my initials 'AP' written in Sharpie. They’re not just shoes—they were my daily trainers and a Gift from my sister, so I’d really appreciate getting them back if someone found them.
Black North Face parka with fur hood
I lost my black North Face parka yesterday around 3pm near the South Limestone Street by the University of Kentucky campus. It's a size M, quilted, with a faux fur hood, and the zipper is a bit stiff from wear. There's a small coffee stain along the hem from a spill last week, and inside the left pocket I stitched my initials 'P.P.' in blue thread. It means a lot to me because it was a gift from my sister, and I really need it back as the mornings are getting chilly. If someone found it, I’d really appreciate getting it back—drop it at campus security on Limestone or message me here.
Red paperback Pride and Prejudice with fox bookmark
I lost my red paperback copy of Pride and Prejudice yesterday around 3pm near the University of Kentucky campus in Lexington, specifically by Limestone Street and the Albert B. Chandler Hospital entrance. It's a well-loved edition, with a small coffee stain on the back cover and a fox-shaped bookmark tucked between pages 112 and 113. The cover is slightly creased from daily use, and there's a faint imprint of a library stamp on the inside page. This book was a gift from my grandmother, so it means more to me than any new read. If you happen to have it, I’d be grateful to hear from you at [email protected].

Found this ring this afternoon around 3:15pm on Limestone Street, right in front of the Camelot Café, near the Lexington Opera House.

Black rectangular sunglasses with gold hinges
I found a pair of black rectangular sunglasses with a slim frame this afternoon around 4:15pm outside the Albert B. Chandler Hospital on South Limestone Street in Lexington.

Inside the left temple is an engraving that reads 'PJ'—a potential owner's initials. I know how easy it is to misplace glasses and how important they are, so I figured I’d post here in case someone recognizes them and wants them back.
Fluffy gray hamster with blue harness
Found this fluffy gray hamster this afternoon around 4:15pm in the Fayette Mall parking lot off Nicholasville Road, near the food court entrance.
