Ever had them before? I haven't, and they hurt like hell. When I was running my long run this weekend, I noticed that the lower part of the inside of my shin was sore. The pain wasn't unbearable and everything hurt at the end of that run, so I thought nothing of it (I blame this on a different pair of aqua sox that I didn't like). It also was bothering me a bit yesterday, but I couldn't figure out how to stretch it out. I felt like I needed to use the foam roller on it.
Normally I don't run 2 days in a row, but due to some work obligations tomorrow, I had to run today instead. Boy did the pain come on strong. I couldn't even finish my 4-mile goal (I may have also been struggling a little bit from the Tiff's Treats cookie I had minutes before leaving the office). It hurt on both legs, but my right leg was much worse. I stopped my run short and spent a few minutes on the elliptical.
I came home and iced the area and used the Thumper to massage it. I don't have another run until this weekend, so I'm hoping that a few days is enough rest for the pain to subside.
