    shoes is a must! But a good stretch - best out there for shins, and it CURES my shin splints is :

    Sit with legs stretched out (or while laying in bed)

    Point toes out and write the alphabet with your toes.

    3 times a day and your shins will be healed. .. try it right now, wait til you feel the stretch! amazing!

    Ive had the same problem! I kept my head down and trained and they dissapeared on there own. If the problem persists i would go see a gp about some anti inflam's :)

    definately have to have the right shoe! I bought 3 pair before I found the right ones!!
    I had shin splints for months. :sad: Best thing I found to do, icy hot and wrap ace bandages around your legs at night. In the morning you wake up pain free!!! :drinker:

    I had the same problem acouple weeks ago, even after 2 weeks in running. I ended up trying to buy new shoes & the store sales rep told me to try getting insoles first. & it actually worked...I no longer have pain anywhere on my legs.
