    Gym is ok a little old. No heavy weights. Treadmill and Eliptical. I guess high reps or take a break...

    We noticed quite a lot of people running up and down the beach in a morning (about 8:30am) when we were there....

    Looked far too energetic for us on holiday though, so can only speak for the bit of the beach you can see from the resort!

    The walkway goes quite a way either way from the resort. TTR is at the 3.5K marker, and there are markers every 500 meters.

    The gym is ok. As already mentioned you can run along the walkways out. I personally prefer alongside the beach. Can be a challenge to navigate but I find it fun.

    I run everyday in cancun..........I lap the three pools and then head to the gym. Never ran down the beach but alot do too. I just prefer no sand in my shoes......... and I feel safer running at 5:30 am in the resort. Even then hubby never sleeps when i am gone.
