The Fog Dodgers invite all residents and visitors of the Mendocino Coast to join us on our weekly group runs and walks. We have runners and walkers of all abilities (and even some bikers) and we have only one "rule" - we start at exactly 8:00 a.m. on Sundays. Exercise at your own pace (1/2 hour out, 1/2 hour back) and experience the fresh Mendocino coastal air.

Fog Dodgers provides a fun, safe way to explore some of our local trails and back roads and to meet new friends. You can find out where we're going to be by reading the bottom of last week's post, then clicking on the "Our Routes" tab above. We average 15-20 persons each Sunday and typically half will go to breakfast together afterwards at a nearby restaurant.

June 06, 2010

This morning, we were at Big River, for what was a "typical" summer-like morning, overcast, 59 degrees and swarming with mosquitoes. Mosquitoes not too bad if you are Johnny, he can outrun them, but for many of the group, they're ferocious!

We ran, walked and biked, and present today were: Fran, and she brought a friend, Reba, John, Joel, Bob, Caleb, Nancy T., Roger, Deb, Sam, Kathy, Steve, Ron, Laurie, Kim, Maddelyn, Scott, Heather, Johnny, Joyce, Nancy and Tom (22).

Six of us enjoyed breakfast at Mendocino's Bayview Cafe.

The broken bridge at Van Damme is now repaired, not sure if the tree blockages are totally removed, and the trail remains very muddy. Russian Gulch State Park's trail is almost completely overgrown with stinging nettles. So,

NEXT SUNDAY, 6/13/10, 8:00 A.M., GROUP RUN/WALK/BIKE, A&W ROAD, also known as the Noyo River Logging Road, beginning at the Fort Bragg Police Department, corner of Cypress and Franklin.

TUESDAYS, 7:00 A.M., Group Run/Walk, RUSSIAN GULCH STATE PARK, beginning on Point Cabrillo Drive, 1/10 of a mile north of it's south end.

THURSDAYS, 7:00 A.M., Group Run/Walk, VAN DAMME STATE PARK, beginning at the beach.

Remember, you can always (24x7) dial the message phone to double check on run locations, 964-9348.
