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.

CASPAR LOGGING ROAD

Some folks were back from various trips so there were quite a few Fog Dodgers at this Sunday's hike at the Caspar logging road. It was a beautiful day and we were far enough inland that there was no coastal fog. Hikers were: Jean, Fran, John, Shari, Charlene, Deb, Sam, Nancy, Tom, Toni, Joe, Doug, Kim and Bowie (13). We all hiked east on the logging road, but actually Toni and Shari had just done a 9.75 mile hike from the same starting point on Friday morning, heading south instead (so they were pretty tired).

Afterwards several hikers went to breakfast at the Good Life Cafe in Mendocino whereas Joe and Toni went to Cucina Verona for the buffet breakfast.

 John has submitted several very nice photos to accompany this week's blog post:
