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.

MENDOCINO

Seen on our run this morning:

We walked and ran around Heeser Drive and Mendocino Village this morning.  Though it was kind of dark and drizzly, the above photo from John should give most of us hope, that Spring is just (?) around the corner.  We actually saw a couple of blooming trees and the days are getting longer now.

Present today:  Fran, Joe, John, Nancy and Tom.  We joined Toni for breakfast at David's.

It was "King Tide" morning, with the high tide being +7.3 feet and if you're familiar with lower Big River, you can appreciate John's photo below, taken just after our run.

Point Cabrillo Lighthouse
If you look closely, you can see the Point Cabrillo Lighthouse.  It was this kind of morning.  The weather forecast now, is for at least 12 straight days of dry.  See you next week!
