What If You Get Shin Splints When You Run

Shin splints are the bane of many runners. I hate to say it, but I think every runner is going to experience this very common running injury at some point in their running career. I'd like to say they can be completely avoided, and that is possible but probably unlikely because you can accidently do something to trigger them, just like plantar fasciitis. If you train wisely and respond at the first twinge of discomfort, it won't be too much of a problem, and that's the topic of this episode of the Beginner Runner Village podcast.
