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.

Russian Gulch State Park

R-G Bridge this morning
What can I say, just another gorgeous day on the coast.  It was a very comfortable 57° and what seems to have become something normal, clear blue skies.  As I write this at mid-day, the temperature is over 80°!  And after yesterdays lovely fresh winds and fabulous angry ocean, today was calm with hardly a wave on the ocean.

The group split roughly into 2 halves, one going along the main trail into the park, and the rest of us taking the headlands.

There was no organised breakfast this morning, as it seemed most folks seemed to have things they had to do.

This mornings calm ocean
As this was my first Fog Dodger walk since returning from my 6 weeks in the UK, it I really enjoyed meeting up with my old friends.  In particular, it was great to walk with Rick on the hill back to the cars, and see him with so much energy and no breathlessness.  Go Rick!
