Went up to Daybreak with Misty and met Danielle for a ten mile jog. I had to cut it short from not feeling well. I had a nice week long break from running, as well as family and friends. Ive been working in Wyoming during the week days and coming home on the weekend. I got a call on the way home from Wyoming from the SoJo Police Department saying my car was stolen from where I parked it for the week. Lovely, so I got to file a stolen vehicle report and deal with that all night. They recovered it and the suspect is in custody. Turned out they used my vehicle in a crime scene. I dont know what they did but they said the guys name is Shawn who stole my car. He said I told him its alright to take it. haha I wished he wouldve wrecked it so I could catch a freakin break. lol

Check under the seats, maybe there's some hidden loot!

Sorry about the car and not feeling well Walter! Sounds like a bad ending to a rough week.

From Walter on Sat, Oct 22, 2011 at 13:39:49 from 24.2.69.110

Rob, I don't know when they are going to give my car back to me. I'm sure it'll be stripped of everything that was in there.

Rachel, I'm am physically and mentally worn out this week. I definitely won't be racing Halloween half. I'll try staying with the 1:40 group.

From Walter on Sat, Oct 22, 2011 at 13:41:05 from 24.2.69.110

Btw, if you guys know where I can get pace bands for 40 pacers I have let me know.

From Rob on Sat, Oct 22, 2011 at 13:45:17 from 204.15.86.95

How do you get to be a pacer? I think that sounds kind of fun.

About 3 years ago my jeep was stolen and the robbers used it to commit over a dozen armed robberies!! It was nuts... it was about 3 months before the police turned the car back over to me after they found it (which along took them almost 2 weeks).

From Walter on Sat, Oct 22, 2011 at 16:00:05 from 97.49.229.243

Rob, I could maybe sneak you in if you want for the 1:40 pace. Send me your email to runwithwalter@gmail.com

From Walter on Sat, Oct 22, 2011 at 16:01:39 from 97.49.229.243

Jake, it's not even my car, it's my Sis in law who lent it to me till mine gets fixed. She is going to crap if they keep it long.

From RAD on Sat, Oct 22, 2011 at 16:15:25 from 98.202.23.178

I can tell you are worn out, a lot on your shoulders. If you get too tired of the 1:40 group. Take a break, cheer a few passing runners then hang with the 1:50 pace group. It will be a party!! :)

From Walter on Sat, Oct 22, 2011 at 16:22:19 from 97.49.229.243

Rachel, I'm actually going to run with Danielle if everyone shows up for their Pace times. I'm sure we may slow to your group.

Sorry to hear about that Walt That really stinks my friend especially on top of all the car problems you have been having lately.

From Bec on Mon, Oct 24, 2011 at 11:26:58 from 68.206.133.141

That is a strange story, the car and all... I'm happy they found out who stole your parked car.

From Walter on Mon, Oct 24, 2011 at 12:17:32 from 97.36.231.158

Steve, thanks! When it rains it pours right?

Bec, it seems to be the story of my life lately.
