Hey all -
Going away with a friend of mine this weekend (who is also on the fitness track). Trying to think of fun, active things we can do to keep on moving forward.

Definitely going to do some biking on the boardwalk, and swimming - might get in some beach yoga. Possibly some running on the beach for me...

any other ideas?

the real challenge is going to be to stay away from the alcohol calories!

    Beach Volleyball? You may well find others will want to join in! Deep water jogging using the water resistance.

    Swimming, surfing, boogie boarding, Frisbee, paddle ball, volleyball, kick a soccer ball, you can do anything on the beach that you would do on regular grass.

    oh frisbee is a good idea! and using the water as resistance. I'm excited.

    mostly trying to find distractions to stay away from the beer/wine coolers tho since that's my go-to vacation treat.

    not really sure that beach volley ball will work since my friend is 6+ months pregnant but definitely the jogging :)

    Lol. Pregnant or not, I don't see myself ever doing that. My ankle hates walking on the beach. And I'll be 7 months Sunday!!!
