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.

Hare Creek, JSF Rd. 400

At 8:00 this morning, it was 50 degrees, pretty dark with the thick clouds over us and a light rain fell. It was as if we were school kids again, taking off down the hill, kicking rocks and jumping puddles. Present were: Melissa, Toni, Randy, John, Bob, Johnny, Nancy and Tom. It was fun, at least more so than not. Late in the hour it started coming down harder, kind of making us all look like drowned rats by the time we finished.

With towells and dry clothes we all seemed none the worse, as we were joined by Brad and Allen for breakfast at David's Restaurant (10).

Merry Christmas everybody!

NEXT SUNDAY, 12/26/10 @ 8:00 A.M.: MACKERRICHER HAUL ROAD (see "Our Routes" above), chosen because it's supposed to rain most of the next week so other trails will be pretty muddy and Whitesboro Grange might be too far for some on the day after Christmas. Oh, I'll miss the Grange folk.

EVERY TUESDAY @ 7:15 A.M.: RUSSIAN GULCH STATE PARK, beginning on Point Cabrillo Drive, 1/10 of a mile north of it's south end.

EVERY THURSDAY @ 7:15 A.M.: VAN DAMME STATE PARK, beginning at the beach.
