Shin splints - help please
They hurt 
I just finished week 6 day 2 of C25K. I was fitted for running shoes in Feburary and I'm taking it slow. So where do I go from here? I'm icing now. How much time do I take off and when can I get started again? I told a friend I'd do a 5k with her on the 26th (it would be our first) and I really don't want to have to skip it.
Re: Shin splints - help please
Massage does wonders! Even if you just do some self-massage while watching tv. Doesn't have to be lots of pressure.
Also stretching your calf muscles helps, do it 2-3 times a day.
Feel better!
Thanks y'all! I do have a foam roller. It is a wonderful thing lol I'm icing and resting and going to try back in a few days I guess! I'm also going to a new PCP next week so I think I'll mention it to her. Thanks for the advice!
