So what am I doing wrong, not doing? Any advice from experiance joggers/runners? (Sam?
)
Ive been going gym since feburary 2, 3 times a week, including 20-30 mins of cardio work. This usually includes treadmill and Its a case of going untill I find stitch kicks in an lowering my pace and then backup again.
Recently though over the last couple of weeks, Ive been taking on outdoor running/jogging as part of my training. Its going well and I am getting further each time before I need to slow down my pace. Unfortunately Its either that or what I believe is a case of Shin Splint??
My legs are absolutely fine before and after training, but after running so long, taking a rest and then picking it up again, I find my shins are extreemly sore and find it difficult/impossible to get going again in that session.
Ive looked into it (google) and is it just a case of begginer doing too much too soon? Is it the impact of harder surface, my trainers are relatively brand new and I am on tarmac/mud/grass as I go around a local park and stream. I am aware this one of the most common problem, especially for beginners.
Any advice how I can avoid this problem or adjust my training? Help?
