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.

This Sunday's walk at Pudding Creek featured a smaller cohort of Fogdodgers. Present were Jean, Charlene, Toni, John, Sky, Eric and Joe. A very pleasant morning out past Virgin Creek and back. On the Pudding Creek trestle some of us spotted a large steel cross bolted to the bridge edging, presumably a memorial. There were lots of birds on the beach at Virgin Creek including many of the pelicans that have been visiting the coast of late all resting along the shoreline. The weather definitely feels like fall is non the way.

Afterwards 3 of us went to the Homestyle Cafe for breakfast.

Here are some photos from John:
