When we vacation in Mexico I run on the beach every other day. On the "off days" I just walk it leisurely. It's a real treat running barefoot on the sand and with the water nearby I can always zig over and get a splash. I'm in brief swimwear, so there is no issue with soggy clothes either. It's simply glorious.
Not surprisingly, as nice as this is, the running is also hard work and I am careful to hydrate and take it easier than when running at home.
I have yet to approach the distances I am comfortable with at home and wonder about what kind of "offset" other people give them selves when they run in similar conditions. I have no running companions to compare notes with . . .
I am also a relatively novice runner - have yet to break the five-mile mark.
Any thoughts on this?
