Serious question - did you get shin splints? If so, how’d you manage them? Great results, btw.
Yeah I did a lot and still do occasionally, I just stretch a lot even on days I’m not going to run and if I feel them coming on whilst running I just jog home and don’t push it.
I’m almost done with a couch to 5k and have a horrible history of shin splints. When I started this time around I got compression sleeves for my shins and it’s seems to help. I still feel my shins, but don’t get splints.
6 WEEKS? Wowza! Great job!
Nicely done mate!
6 damn weeks?! Fuck this is inspiring! I just got my chunky butt out the door for the first run in a while and this is going to get me out again tomorrow. Good for you man, you are transformed!

6 weeks !! Wow !!!
The change in posture speaks volumes. Insane improvement in a very short time. Whatever you do, do not stop running because you clearly have a talent for it.
