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.

Noyo Headlands Park- North

This morning, we met near Glass Beach and ran and walked the trail at Noyo Headlands Park.   We did the north section, as the two halves are not joined yet and it will be awhile before they are.  When the trails connect in the future, it's going to be a great trail.  Now, it's a nice trail.


Early and cold arrivals

It was brisk when we met, 38 degrees with a steady breeze and mostly sunny skies.  John caught a picture of some kind of weird cloud formations.
