I’ve recently joined the gym and have started running. I’m really unfit, quite overweight and a complete beginner at any sort of exercise, so am starting slowly, 10 minutes alternating between jogging and fast walking, then strength training and some rowing or cycling, so the only impact bit is the jog/walk. I’m also only going 3 times a week at the moment, so I’m really trying to ease myself into it.
My shins are agony after, sometimes for a couple of days, sometimes starting while I’m running and sometimes the next day. What can I do? It’s reallt affecting my motivation to go, because for the first time ever I’m actually enjoying running buts it’s hurting.
Any ideas would be much appreciated :)
