I have resumed jogging. However, already after 5 minutes of running, I will have unbearable pain in my lower legs. I might be experiencing "shin splints", and I wonder what are some good ways to prevent/lessen/delay these. I start running, and after 5 minutes I will feel bad muscle pain in the lower-front part of my lower legs. If I continue running for another 5 minutes, I will start running like a duck, as I cannot flex(?) my feet anymore. Another 5 minutes, and I am done and walk back home as

Help, I think I'm getting shin splints! I've started running recently, with the goal of [eventually] building up to a half marathon. I've done a few runs of about 3 miles, and I have the same problem every time ... For the first, say, mile and a half I'm feeling great, then as the run wears on I start to feel a sort of burning in my shins (and sometimes ankles). It gets worse as the run goes one. It goes away not too long after I stop running, but my shins feel kind of sore for a day or two (I'm

Please help me learn to run. For starters, I am built like a sprinter: big, muscular legs ... I have never been a particularly good distance runner ... Next, I have a variety of foot related issues, mostly corrected through the use of the proper footwear and foot care ... I have wide feet (EEEE) ... I over pronate ... I have a history of blisters and calluses ... As part of my weight loss efforts, I began walking ... Now I can walk at 4.4+ miles per hour, at steep inclines, for very long periods

I don't so much walk as lope, and I don't so much jog as sprint.

Short people, how do you jog? Okay, for some this may seem plainly absurd. But, it's a real problem that I'm having. I cannot figure out how one jogs ... I'm short; just under 5'2". Over the years, when health and weight allowed, I've went running whenever I needed to release frustration. The problem is that I get extraordinarily tired by this because I actually /run/. More appropriately, I sprint - fast as I can go over short distances. I sprint so hard that my vision blurs or cuts out, tears
