Re: Shin Splint from over-compensation?

Posted by E-Z Runnin' on 2/01/99
Yes, I know exactly what you are talking about. I have the same problem. What I have done is just treat the shin splints separatly with ice and elevation. I think though that if your shin spints are really bad the best things to do are cut down on your running schedule (try low impact cross training) or find somewhere "softer" to run. I find that when I run on snow, grass, or even mud, my shinsplints are far less severe, than when I run on asvalt, and especially concrete.
