Really starting to enjoy it now! My shins hurt after though, is that normal?

[Hidden in reply to jaime77]

is it ache or pain - aching to be expected pain is not.

It could be shin splints but you’d be very unlucky having them so soon in the plan. check out the faqs on prepping for runs and afterwards.

make sure you’re hydrated properly also - what trainers are you wearing?

sometimes you can jar your legs if the support isn’t adequate from either old/ill fitting trainers...

Ive had shin pain that didn’t actually develop into anything other than it ached for a couple of hours post run... But when I had my gait analysis done they said my running style is neutral if you over/under pronate without correct support that could contribute to shin pain.

Hope its none of these things and just a niggle. Take a nice rest tomorrow... fingers crossed you’re okay

The gyms become empty more frequently when the good weather appears.

Enjoy it ☺️

I had a lot of shin aches/pains in the early weeks. We don't really use those muscles much so it's a big surprise when they can hurt so much. It should pass. Self massage, just up and down the length of the shin helps a lot. Give the calves some love whilst you're there too! 👍😉

Try one of those vicious, masochistic, evil foam rollers...?

Thanks everyone! ❤️ it’s more of an ache than a sharp pain but I’ll keep my eye on it 👌🏻😊
