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.

Ten Mile River Logging Road

It was beautiful this morning.  We met at Ten Mile River and walked or ran the logging road.   At the end, there were mixed reviews, very nice, too hard of a surface, boring and, beautiful.  Whatever.  Sorry, I do feel your pleasures and dislikes, honest!

Part of what I like about this road, is that there are lots of different views and things to look at.  We see wildlife and flowers and if you watch the banks of the river, you spot an occasional boat or campsite.

John went up to Ten Mile River yesterday, to visit some friends.  Some of these photos were taken along the north side of the river, others from along today's course.
