I will usually stop once or twice in btween to stretch/walk/drink water. Anyway, i was starting to become really sore, and i thought it was my calves, but i noticed the pain was coming from the side/front of my shins. I try to run on grass and i just bought some really good running shoes. They are the Asics GT-2110.
Anyway, i would hate to stop running cause i noticed that it has toned up my body, plus running at the gym is so boring. If im at the gym, ill use the ellpitcal aka ski machine for about an hour so its less harsh on my joints. However, after running this morning, my inner right ankle is very sore and the bone is swollen. I have no idea what the heck is going on!? Maybe i should wear an ankle brace?
Anyway, if you guys have any ideas on how to prevent/relieve shin splints please let me know! thanks!

bella, i think you should go to the doctor or hospital and have it checked. the last thing you want is an internal injury, these kinda things can be serious. hope all will be well for you
