Not the best weather, bit wet n windyπŸ’¨πŸ’¦ But run completed. Slow & steady 🐒, first 90 secs right shin tight, ok after that. Does this mean I didn't stretch enough, any suggestions on stretching for shins? Feeling positive 😊

Yay! Glad to hear it went OK (once the shin relaxed). Don't know what stopped mine from hurting last time but think maybe other muscles/tendons etc are waking up a bit and starting to share some of the strain?? Don't know why the app doesn't mention stretching at the end of each run but I do it and I'm sure it helps a lot. Hope the rest of your week goes well.

Ive found runnersworld.com/the-body-s... , I have only tried them once but they seem ok and hopefully will help. I do your run tomorrow, looking forward to it.
