Hi all. I've done my second run today (only on week 1) and my shins hurt a little when I run. I used to work in sports retail and we sold loads of Sorbathane insoles.....having never done any exercise I wondered if it's worth using them. I have good Adidas running shoes £60ish.
The last thing I want is for pain to put me off as I'm enjoying it so far.
Thanks for any advice

I really recommend them. I suffered from shin splints after completing the program and since restarting (and having started using gel insoles) I've not had any problems
I've just discovered the joys of gel insoles after months on the injury couch with knee trouble. They're fab. My shoes cost about £100 but they're 10 times better now I've got the gel insoles in them. Get some, you won't regret it
Thanks lovely people. I've ordered a pair of the moulded Sorbathane full insoles that I used to sell so many of. Found a great price too as they can be very expensive. Will see if they help.
