beach run

Shoreline fitness sprint

A beach run is a jog or sprint along the shoreline, typically on sand.

The unstable surface makes it more demanding than pavement running, working stabilizer muscles and increasing cardiovascular effort.

Beach runs may follow the harder wet sand near the water or the softer dry sand higher up: I do a beach run every morning before the tourists arrive.
