Subject: Shin pain and new running shoes BACKGROUND:
I'm still a noobie runner, having become an "adult-onset runner" at the age of 44. I took a Good Form Running class, and run right around 180 strides/minute. Things have been going well, and I'm registered for my first half-marathon in late April.
ISSUE:
I recently replaced my Brooks Ghost 4 shoes with Brooks Ghost 5. Lately, my left shin has been hurting quite a bit after my long run (8 miles this morning ). Today, I went back to my old shoes, and so far, no pain. Any thoughts as to why this might be? |
