I was wondering if shin splints at boot is a reason for separation? Problem I am having is I work on concrete floors, the shoes i wear have no support in them, and later on when i run my shins feel like they are being murdered.
In my mind I am hoping that the shin splints will go away when my leg muscles start becoming used to running but by the time I am done my shins are hurting. With a few days of rest the pain subsides so I doubt my shins are fractured but I know at boot I wont get rest.
I stretch before I run and I take a few aspirin before I run and it helps for a bit and too a point, not really sure what else I should be doing. I certainly dont want my crappy old man body keeping me from earning my title.
