Episode description

Today a runner asked a great question…”Can I run with shin splints?”

The short answer is yes, you can run on shin splints for a short period of time…if it shin splints. 

The problem is, is that there are a couple of different conditions that are often called “shin splints” that could be something else.

The real questions are:

If I stop running because of shin splints will I lose all of my fitness?

Can I run with shins splints and still heal?

Can I run with shinsplints without getting worse?
