44、 on a cool summer morning, but is running on the sand good for your body? It can be, but its important to be aware of the challenges that some beach runners experience before you get ready.Running on the beach can be a good thing. Its certainly different from running on a track or a pavement. For st
45、arters, sand can be a challenge because it has an uneven (不平坦的) surface. As you push off, youre going to lose some of your push as the sand moves. So, youre not going to be able to push yourself forward as you would on a track or a pavement. But this unevenness has an upside: It gives your body an e
46、xtra workout, forcing you to exercise muscles that dont get as much use during runs on firm surfaces. For example, your feet, ankles and lower back might feel sorer and more tired than usual after a beach run just because the surface is constantly moving and changing step to step.You also might feel
47、 sore afterward because beaches tend to slope (倾斜) down to the water. If youre going for a long run on the beach, you might notice that one side of your body might feel sorer because youre putting more pressure on it due to the slope.Some beach runners prefer to run barefoot not wearing anything on
48、feet. However, if youre not used to barefoot running, start slowly and dont run long distances at first. Thats because running barefoot uses more different muscles than running with shoes does, and its important to strengthen these muscles and adapt your feet. If you want to run barefoot and as long as you run carefully enough into it, go for it!Running on the sand can be a smart choice for you, because running on softer ground surfaces can reduce muscle damage.
