Well I have overdone it AGAIN, My shins have bothered my since day one. First I could not run 20 seconds without intense burning, then I worked on strengthening them and it improved. I could run a mile without them bothering me, even that started to get better and I was going 5 miles without them stopping me. All along they have been sore, if I touch my legs its tender like they are bruised. It was nothing major I wasn’t in agony or anything I just dealt with it. This last week I think I went to far, I really tweaked the shin on my right leg good. Walking is difficult now I’m taking some time off running, maybe 4 days icing my shin everyday and in general taking it easy. Hopefully it won’t take to long before I can get back to running. I always get obsessed with anything I do and go overboard, running is no exception to that. Hopefully I don't damage myself to my by pushing so hard, I do try to limit myself and take it gradual!
