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.

Big River Logging Road



 John took this photo from Jack Peters Creek looking north this morning and the photo below of Mendocino's Presbyterian  Church .  Thank you, John!


It was 51 degrees with a pretty stiff breeze coming down Big River.  Hard to hold everyone back when it's cold like that.  That said, it was nice once you got just a little ways up the road.  It is sunny and unbelievably nice for a November day.


I hope that I have everyone's name here.  Why else would anyone get up so early on a Sunday morning, if it's not to see their name on the internet?  It really is a great bunch of people and it is nice to see each one of you.  Today,  back for the first Sunday in many moons, Cheryl, a very long time member of the Fog Dodgers and regular Tuesday runner.  For first timers, there were:  Lindsay (sp.?), Gary, Kathleen, and Pete, thanks to all of you for joining us.  Also present:  Bob, Craig, Suzanne, Henry, Toni, Joe, Jennifer, Ginny, Terry, Joel, John, Kathy, Steve D., Shari, Peter, Orah, Steve G., Nancy B., Rick, Fran, Suzi, Cindy, Jim,  Nancy and Tom (30).


NEXT SUNDAY, Nov. 11th, @ 8:00 A.M.: RUSSIAN GULCH STATE PARK, see "Our Routes" above.

SAVE SUNDAY, NOV. 18TH, so that you can come to our BIN TO BIN TO BIN RUN/WALK.  It is a fun way to donate a few cans of food or whatever to the local Food Bank for Thanksgiving.  More on it next week.  

EVERY TUESDAY @ 7:00 A.M.: RUSSIAN GULCH STATE PARK, beginning on Point Cabrillo Drive, 1/10 of a mile north of its south end.

EVERY THURSDAY @ 7:00 A.M.: VAN DAMME STATE PARK, beginning at the beach.
