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.

PUDDING CREEK TRESTLE

We had three new people this morning.  Thank you Nick, Susan and Bruce, for joining with us today.  We hope that you'll be able to return often.  It's so nice to have new people join in.

It was a beautiful and warm morning at 8:00 a.m., something that is beginning to happen all too often.  It seems funny, or wrong, to worry about too much good weather.  Let's just enjoy it while we can.

I was distracted this morning with some kind of RV Show.  I swear, someone asked us to bring those things............... but we were happy to show them too.  Anyway, I'm afraid that I was not attentive to who all was there, and I didn't even get to meet the first timers until much later.  Thanks to Roger, the whole group got going at exactly 8:00.
