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.

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.
