Running

I've been dealing with a posterior tibial shin splint in my right leg. After some rest and recovery, I feel good, but once I go out for a long run over an hour, it starts to flare up. The pain is very light, but I want it to go away completely.

Would highly recommend foam rolling front and back of legs, and back. It’ll set you free!

I haven’t used compression socks before, but since I’ve been on the trails lately I’ve started using longer crew socks to help keep the rocks out. I really thinks it’s all the downhills I’ve been doing lately.

most likely overuse. 

have you tried compression socks?

The shoes are fairly new, I’m thinking it may just be overuse. But it might be time to retire the Pegasus as the daily trainer. 

I took it easy for a couple weeks but the downhills are tearing up my legs lately.

how many km there are on your current shoes?
if the limit is 1 hours, try to don't run over that limit for some weeks.
I've dealt with shin splint on the same right leg in February, I decreased mileage and intensity and changed shoes. after 1 month it was completely gone.
