Hi Dano, I am a true beginner and I was not making any progress due to shin splints, and I was getting quite stressed about it. I have now purchased a new pair of shoes from a chain sports shop as I didn't have time to get to a proper runners shop. For once there were a few pairs that fitted me well, especially the Asics, in the end I went for a nike running one and touch wood and all that I haven't suffered - let the running begin !!! Good luck

Hi Iain, I have taken up your advice, I couldn't get to a specialist shop but when I come across one I will make more of an effort and go in for some proper advice. I went for a run / walk on Monday night and bought a new pair of trainers, that are alot better, they are from a large chain shop but the guy there was actually really helpful. I have now realised that my other trainers were to big for me, and this was probably the main problem. I have not had shin splints this week, so far and have just been to practice sprinting and I feel really good ( touch wood ). Thanks for the website I will check it out. Keep smiling Lizzy * |

Hi I am so glad I have found this website, I also am getting fed up with sore shins or shin splints, I am trying to improve my running ( only a beginner ) but after everytime I really do suffer, I put on a cold gel Ibropfren gel and cool ice pack, but how can I prevent it happening instead of just treating it after it happens. I would really like to enjoy running/ jogging but feel fed up when I suffer
