Hi all
I'm hoping for some advice re sore shins after running.
On Friday I did my first c25k run and my shins are still very sore 2 days letter, tender to walk. I've done c25k a few times in the past and completed it, but not for 5 or so years. I stretched my calves, quads and hamstrings before and after and took the running intervals at a very steady pace.
The pain is on the front of my lower leg and very slightly towards the outside, rather dead centre of the bone. Shins were a bit sore while I was running, but I don't ever remember feeling this tender in the past. It doesn't feel like muscle ache, which I expect (and have in other areas!).
I am probably 4 stone heavier than the last time I did c25k. Would this be why my shins are sore?
Will this eventually go away as I get back into running? Does anyone have any advice re stretches or anything else I could do?
