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.

Bin-2-Bin-2-Bin



Yes, today was about the Food Bank.  Thanks for the photo, John.  On the past two Thanksgivings, we did this Bin-2-Bin-2-Bin Run/Walk and it was felt that by doing it on the Sunday before Thanksgiving, we might get a better turnout than by having it on Thanksgiving.  A good idea but a few showers this morning likely suppressed interest for this year.  We did however, double the number of participants from previous years and as always, we had fun!  Besides the shower at 7:30 this morning, it was 45 degrees with a fair breeze blowing, probably keeping some Fog Dodgers at home.  By walking and running, we  benefitted our own health and The Food Bank benefitted,  as at each store we made it to, we dropped food items into the Food Bank's barrels for Thanksgiving.

Thanks to Bob J., for inviting Sarah, welcome to the Fog Dodgers.  Also present today, Bob J. and Bob C., John, Ginny, Terry, Nancy B., Rick, Nancy and Tom (10).
