  1. Sensory stimulation – breathe in the salty tang, feast your eyes on the azure ocean and hazy mountains, feel the rhythm of the waves accompany your steps.
  2. Sand running builds strength – running on the beach is not as easy as it looks!
  3. Running on the uneven surface engages your core.
  4. It burns more calories so training is more effective.
  5. The softer surface has less impact on ankles, knees and hips.

Here are some other fun ideas to spend time in Kommetjie with the family – once you’re freshly showered (and feeling smug!) of course.
