Question:

How do you know when/if you're developing shin splints?

Everything was fine until my run wog on Wednesday. Since then, I've had soreness extending from just above the ankle to about 2/3 of the way up my lower leg. The soreness seems to run along the muscle. (I think this is the tibialis anterior muscle?)

I was pushing the speed during the run, so I may have done something stupid. Bleh....

I should probably go ice it. (I hate ice. I detest ice. I abhor ice....)

Although I'm a big fan of frozen water and all the amazing things it can do to make my swelling go down, I suppose I wouldn't be a fan of Mr. Ice either, after seeing a picture of him.  I hope you two have fun tonight!

Dear SuperCat,

Obviously, you haven't been reading your own mentor thread.

Shawn reported this "breaking news" earlier.....

Do I need to repost my sparkly congratulations? Sure.... why not?

Hi Dee - inside or outside of the leg? If it runs along the outside of your leg from around your ankle bone upitmight be your perennials(sp?) givingyou grief.

If youve increased how much running youve been doing and/or intensity significantly they can play up as they help to stabilise your leg when your foot hits the ground and as they are rather little they get itred easily.

Tight calves/achilles can make the problem worse...

 

And ICE is your friend... be thankful it isnt winter there

It seems to run along the muscle at the front of the shin.... And if I push on the bone, there's a sore spot about 1/3 of the way down (from the knee).

I increased the mileage a little, but mostly, I was trying to increase the pace. (Trying to get from a slog to a jog. LOL)

I still hate ice. (No matter whether it's Ice, Mr. Ice, or Ice Cube...)

Well, of COURSE we've listened to it.

It was very good. (But I think you were probably a little nervous, or maybe you just like to talk really fast. I probably wouldn't have noticed, except the guy's voice is so slow in comparison.) It was a very good interview. Congratulations!

Oh... You have an accent, btw. LOL

Sulcus - 2009-06-19 2:29 PM Dee's sparkles SKEER me!

Hee - I know that both of us are cheap, so it will be VERY good motivation.  Plus, we have a 30 lbs minimum on the loss. 

Thanks for the luck, I'm going to need it.  He's already down 3 lbs in the past week, though I've got to believe some of it is water weight since he just started changing his eating habits (or so I'm going to tell myself)...
Heh, consider yourself fortunate. I'm posting WAYYY less sparkly stuff now than I was a year ago. LOL Losing 30 lbs by the wedding? Um, when exactly IS the wedding? (Please don't tell us that it's in 2 weeks. LOL)



Don't worry, I'm not that crazy.  It is in November, so it will be a stretch but I think it can be done.

 

That is just a little over a pound a week...that's very do-able!  You know we are all here cheering you on!

Absolutley doable - just remember if you are seriously restricting your calorie intake it may impact your workouts a little in terms of the energy you have available to train etc

Nothing wrong with that as longer term carrying less weight will mean better results athletically in the long term.. but inthe short term do bare it in mind!

Congrats Cat!  (I also realize I'm being a provincial American but you have the cutest accent!  Laughing)

Sulcus - 2009-06-19 6:50 AM Wow - you all are really good with your food.  I'm going to need to start being better and even begin tracking my food.  My father and I just entered into a contest with each other over who can lose the most weight by my wedding.  The loser has to pay for the hotel rooms and tickets for us to see the Red Sox play in a ballpark that neither of us has been to yet.  He's already pushing for Pittsburgh so he can see the new ballpark they just built there...
Wow, that's some contest! Big time payout for the loser. LOL Good luck!

Tracking what you eat is reallyhelpful when loosing weight.... justhaving to WRITE IT DOWN can be a little detterrent to putting it in your mouth!

It is also useful over time to see how things have changed AND if you are running out of meal ideas you can go back and see what you were eating in the past... see if there is anything youve forgotten!

I usually log what Im eating on BT when I need some help keeping myself in check... I kjust typeit in to keep me on trackso if it helps do it on your log OR here on the mentor thread...

If we know what you are eating we can also help you workout what to tweak or offer ideas if you want them...
