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.

VAN DAMME

Sunday morning at VAN DAMME parking lot brought out the heartiest of the Fog Dodgers. According to my car thermometer, the temp was about 38 degrees. Peter, Shari and their dog, Lewis along with Sam, Deb, Sky, John, Charlene, Barbara, Kelly, Beth and Bob headed up the chilly Van Damme/Little River trail past patches of frost and frozen tent campers. Hey, let’s go tent camping in January!…. anyway not too many of us wanted to go to breakfast seeing that Whitesboro canceled their monthly gathering… some did go to the Caspar Breakfast. A shout out to John Loomis on his 75th birthday! 
Not sure where our meeting place is next Sunday….Joe will let us know, and by the way, we hope Joe is feeling better…..cheers, Sam
