So over the last few months I have been making every effort to stay physically active. I am in the gym at least 3-4 days a week doing the elliptical for 45 minutes to an hour, doing some weight training, and some other floor exercises. Now that the weather is getting nice again I want to get outside and exercise and run. I went out and bought motion stability sneakers for my flat feet and got all geared up and excited to run. Now last year I had this problem but I thought tha since I now had good sneakers and hadn't hit the pavement in a long time that my injury had gone away...nope! I went running yesterday with my boyfriend and it was so painful! My shins felt like someone was stabbing them every time my foot hit the ground. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what i could do about my shin splints? I hate being limited and hate even more to think that I won't ever be able to be a runner...
