How about using a rowing machine - if using the slide still hurts your ankle you could just use your upper body. I had an idea and googled "cardio wheelchair" to see some ideas of what cardio can be done with just the upper body. Try that .. there were lots of suggestions including arm bikes (may be able to rent one), or…

I had shin splints .. two things helped me. Run on the elliptical instead of the treadmill .. no impact, no shin splints (for me at least). Then I also went to a podiatrist and got some insoles made which helped a lot. Now I'm alternating elliptical and treadmill and happy with that. Cheers, Cam.
