Running

🚨😢
I’m starting to feel pain while running. After a quick search it seems the start of shin splints

Here is where you can shill me effective remedies, successful recovery stories and moral support. 

I have a race on Sunday. The pain is still manageable but I don’t want to worsen the inflammation afterwards.

Rice (rest ice compression elevation)may help. Good luck Sunday.

Have you tried discharge massage? works wonders...

I know. I just need moral support here. 

Doctors are not runners. They will just say don’t run and it will disappear in two weeks 🥲

go to a doctor you trust, don‘t trust the internet for medial advice

Fortunately it’s not bad at the moment. Just the first sign of a small annoyance. But I have to keep it under control.

Had bad shin splints in 2016. I didn’t wear good running shoes, which probably contributed.  

Stopped running for a few months but also bought real shoes so not sure what was more important. Also wore compressive sleeves while running when I returned.

I know it’s the shoes. I’ve always used the Kayano because I’m a bit pronator. But lately I’ve trained and raced a lot in the magic speed which are hard neutral so the leg was under stress. Hopefully the ice and rest this days are enough. Testing tomorrow

Hey man, it's the shoes and your running stance! Go to a running shop and get those feet of yours checked to see whether you're a neutral or stability fit and to get advice on how to best run. The pain is just a matter of resting. Unfortunately the solution I provide won't help you for Sunday (need to break in shoes).
