Shin pain

[sallenson Graduate]

Assuming your shoes are right for you and you're not always running up hills then it may be over-striding. Your landing foot should be in line with your hip. Any further forward and you can get shin pain. Think of pedalling a bike where your foot comes back towards you on the down stroke. That's kind of what you're aiming for. So smaller steps.

Let us know if it eases up...
