Great on the beach, but not to run that distance on sand?!! or any distance on sand come to that. I've never run on sand, but would think it must be like running in treacle, and would have thought just a few k's would be enough, wether wet or dry..😊

I bet you have glorious weather there again Bazza! Weathers being pretty crap here in SE England..😕

As well as being really hard work, just think how long it will take to get the sand out of your trainers!

About Thirty seconds Slowstart. I have a small bannister brush hooked up by the back door outside and give each trainer a quick brush over, front back and sides then a few tap tap taps to get rid of any inside sand and it is all good. Like new.

Dave, running on sand is magic. I am talking about packed sand. It is hard enough so as not to sink in and soft enough so that you feel like running on a rubber mat. It is usually close to the water line.
