Episode 91 is an interview and discussion Ben Lindsay, founder of the company Solushin. Ben was an athlete who suffered from shin splints and wasn’t impressed by available ways of dealing with them. So, in conjunction with other athletes he developed system to deal with shin splints. I know for myself, in my early days of running I got shin splints that I ignored, mainly because I didn’t know what they were! I continued ignoring them until they turned into stress fractures!! I think we all make silly mistakes when we are new runners! Knowledge is power, and the more we know about the different injuries runners can sustain, and the more we know about the available treatments, the better off we will be. I hope this podcast offers you some insights into how to avoid or treat this injury. If you are like the majority of runners, you may feel like you are constantly beset with niggles (a euphemism for injuries!!) that take away from your joy of running. You may even have sore shins!!
