I don't know about "running shoes," but my paddling shoes are Tevas (not to be confused with Teva sandals). They look like running shoes, but they're specifically made for watersports. They work very well, they're comfortable, and they're great on pebbly beaches. They do let the sand in a little easier than they let it out, but not so much as to be uncomfortable. My only gripe with them is the very long laces, that I always step on and open. I've taken to double-knotting them, and then stuffing the ends inside the shoes.
