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.

WARD AVENUE

DON'T FORGET TO ADVANCE YOUR CLOCKS FOR DAYLIGHT SAVINGS.

 

Probably because of early morning hail and rain only 7 of us showed up at the Ward avenue parking area: Shari, Charlene, John, Sky, Joe and Toni, with Sarah running. By 8 AM all was clear and there were decent periods of sunshine, so the walk turned out to be beautiful, not windy and an easy walk to the south until we got to the place where Lake Cleone was spilling across the road through a gap in the dune and out across the beach to the sea. Turning around a bit early, we walked a bit through the campground on our way back to the haul road. We got back to the parking lot just as slight sprinkles were commencing. 

Only Toni and Joe went to breakfast at the Laurel Deli.

A couple of photos from John, including a fanciful address sign on Pine Street near the park:

DON'T FORGET TO ADVANCE YOUR CLOCKS FOR DAYLIGHT SAVINGS.
