Walk.

Used to do 10 + mile runs with a 20 pounds of weight. I was weighing low 150's at the time.

Though if I had a sandy beach...

I've had knee injuries where I recuperated walking with 20 pounds and I think it aided my recovery if not maintained my fitness.

The only tip: for me it took time to adapt to the should strap pressure points.
I'm glad you posted this, I'm going to try sone new stuff Thursday morning.
