Feeling pretty pleased with myself today, up at 6 before kids and completed my second run, looking forward to Thursday now. Although does anyone else have sore shins?

It's great running first thing isn't it? Sets up the day well, with a nice virtuous glow inside, and often outside too. :)

I think that sore shins (shin splints) can often be helped by having properly fitted running shoes but there is more detail here (preview.tinyurl.com/4egzrxd) which may help.

Wow, well done at getting up and out so early! I have just started again and did wk2 r1 yesterday but doing it on the treadmill, thinking about going outside as soon as i feel more confident.

Sorry not sure about pain in shins.

I also found compression socks helped :)
