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.

MacKerricher Haul Road



"Running is the greatest metaphor for life, because you get out of it what you put in to it."
  --Oprah Winfrey



 
  Luckily, we all got to stay in bed an extra hour last night, all but one anyway.  It seems like each year, one of us will get caught not setting the clock forward or back.  Anyway, I say luckily got to stay home an extra hour because it was brisk enough at 8:00, it was nice to have a little sun.  We were at MacKerricher State Park and when it's windy, there's no hiding from it on the Haul Road.  It was a very cold and windy 50 degrees and we were all anxious to get started.  


Thanks to John L. for today's photos.   One was taken on Halloween, the other three this morning.  See if you can figure it out.  Remember, you can click on any photo and see it full size.

Out for the walk or run this morning were:  Joel, Zelda, Barbara, Gay, Mark, Nancy B., Rick, Geri, Suzanne, Henry, Tonita, John, Rod, Ken, Toni, Joe, Bob J., Shari, Peter, Fran, Nancy and Tom (22).
