Pt.4 Common Running injuries and how to avoid them: Shin splints

You’re starting to notice a pain in the lower leg in the shin. The pain starts with a little ache when you run. You think to yourself ‘it’s nothing serious, I’ll ignore it’. Another couple of weeks of running adding lots more stress to the lower leg, you’re now noticing the pain developing into a sharper more painful sensation. Almost tender to run.

The worst case scenario is you continue to run through the pain thinking you can ‘run it off’ because of that you develop stress fractures of the tibia (which is the shin bone) which puts you out of action for up to 12 weeks. You have to dramatically modify your daily activities and your running routine is well and truly out of the window.

Before you become one of the 1 in 5 people that experience this issue, is there anything you can do to mitigate the risk factors and make your body stronger, reducing the risk of ever experiencing Shin Splints?
