Very fine sediments that can be carried by wind over long distances are known as dust particles or dust clouds. These particles can range in size from clay to silt and are light enough to be lifted and transported by wind currents for extended distances. They can have significant impacts on environmental and health issues when carried over long distances.
Fine-grained sediments such as silt and clay are most easily picked up and transported by the wind due to their small particle size and low settling velocity. These fine particles can be carried long distances by even light winds before settling back down.
Wind is the primary agent of erosion that causes loess. Fine particles of silt and clay are carried by the wind over long distances before settling and accumulating to form thick deposits of loess.
Large boulders are not typically deposited by wind because they are too heavy to be carried long distances by wind erosion.
Rain can carry various pollutants such as dust, pollen, soil particles, and minerals. These particles can be carried by rain over long distances before being deposited on the ground.
The most important factor in the ability for wind to move sediments is how fast the wind is blowing. An extremely fast wind (think hurricanes) can move huge sizes of sediments as well as the small stuff. A light breeze, on the other hand, can barely pick up small grains. As the wind picks stuff up, so does it drop stuff down. Bigger sediments will travel much shorter distances due to the fact that the wind can't necessarily sustain high speeds for long distances. The smallest stuff will travel the furthest. This principle of sorting is true in all types of erosion, from water to ice to, obviously, wind.
Loess
Fine-grained sediments like silt and clay can be transported over long distances from their source due to their small size and low settling velocity. These sediments can be carried by winds or rivers and deposited far away in areas such as floodplains, deltas, or deep ocean basins.
Large volumes of bottom sediments can be transported long distances by processes such as turbidity currents, underwater avalanches, and longshore drift. These processes involve the movement of sediment-laden water in rivers, currents, or waves that can carry sediments over vast distances across the ocean floor.
Most Romans walked or were carried in a litter. However for long distances they had carriages and wagons and ships. A messenger or a military officer would travel by horseback.Most Romans walked or were carried in a litter. However for long distances they had carriages and wagons and ships.

They can get to where they need to be quicker and easier.
Loess particles are smaller and lighter than sand particles, allowing them to be carried further by the wind. Additionally, loess particles have a greater tendency to become suspended in the air due to their fine-grained nature, which further contributes to their transport over long distances.

Coconut seeds. They travel long distances in the the sea carried by ocean currents.
You are fine. No problem as long as you keep taking them.
I have run a marathon and almost a dozen marathons in them. I definitely wouldn't take them off road but if you have trained in them and can handle the minimal support, they are fine for long distances.
Volcanic ash is comprised of very fine particles of molten rock that can remain suspended in the upper atmosphere for extended periods of time. Ash can be carried long distances by wind and its presence can impact air travel, weather patterns, and even climate.
