Dominican Republic

If you’re out early on the beach in the Dominican Republic, you’ll likely see others or be the one jogging or running along the beach. It might look relaxing but if you’ve tried you know it’s quite challenging.

Sand absorbs energy, an ability used in road barriers,  for example, a feature you’ll feel when running, walking, or exercising in sand.

When sand absorbs the energy, you must use more muscle activity to move. That loose sand will make feet slide backward is yet a factor why sand training is extra effective. Then add dunes if there are any around…

Yet a reason to enjoy the beach!
