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.

WARD AVENUE



Valentine's Day, Lake Cleone, J. Loomis photo

Thank you John, for today's photos.  And thanks for the run.  On some mornings, the benefits of walking or running with a group are more apparent.  This morning, the beach seemed longer and straighter, the sand softer and the morning greyer.  On my own, I may not have kept going but with a group, you kind of just keep going.  It was 48 degrees and calm, skies were mostly overcast with high clouds and the surf was large with several breaks.

Next Sunday, we'll do the north section of the new Coastal Trail.  It's the half that starts near Glass Beach and from there, you can go either north or south.
