mmmm. tasty!
There you are
Margaritas...excellent work. Yumsters.
I am just bouncing around for a few more minutes before I have to run. I had a pretty good day, kicking off a few big projects.
I have shin splints that are kicking my aas. Monkey said that the only cure is rest.
So, that threw a kink in my running plans today...changed them to beverage plans.
How about you?
Okay well not to say that Monkey is wrong, because she isn't, but I think there are some things you can do if you wish to continue running. Yes, the best and fastest way to get rid of shin splints is to rest. However, since I deal with D-I athletes, that is usually not an option. Things you can do to reduce the pain, while still being active:
1)Make sure your shoes are still newer and supportive. I know that I had lower end running shoes and would get THE WORST shin splints. I figured out that when I run, I pronate a lot, which means my ankles roll inward towards each other and I needed a shoe with a more rigid arch, called motion control shoes. Once I switched, I had no more shin splints.
2) Doing too much too soon can cause them, however changing your running surface is the #1 cause. Don't switch from pavement to a treadmill, to grass, or a track. Stay consistent with 1 type of surface.
3) Ice and strech. Make ice cups by taking a paper cup, filling it 3/4 the way with water and freeze. Tear off the top of the cup so that the ice is showing and massage into your painful areas for 7-10 minutes before and after you run. Also, A LOT of calf stretching with your knees straight (you should feel it in your calf just below the knee into the mid-calf) and with your knees bent (you will feel it closer to your achilles).
Hope this helps you!!
And to answer your question, I'm doing alright. Sick of this drama, but whatevs.
Wow, thanks Lyse.
I am happy for all opinions/ideas and I super appreciate that you took the time to write that! I am c&p as we speak! Thanks!
I hear you. Circular arguements are tiresome.
You're a doll.
I am sure my running shoes are in need of replacement, and the surface thing is totally a factor.
A smack on the lips and the ass for you.
Off to bed, thanks again!
