Shin Splints

Ah, so it seems I've fallen victim to the infamous shin splints. It's so frustrating, just as I was working through the program, starting to feel more confident - Shin splints strike. 

I took a 7 day rest after realising I had them as it's recommended the best treatment for them is rest. So I've just been on my first run back and within 10 minutes it was too painful to carry on.

I'm gonna search for cures / warm ups / tips to prevent them. 

I really didn't bargain on this, quite pissed off.
