dlish - I have been walking primarily and am working into the running slowly. On days where my shin splits have bothered me then I just walk the next day. Do you think switching to walking the 3 miles instead of running is enough of a 'Break' from the running? I've been covering the 3 miles every day, just varying the intensity or whether I'm walking or running. It seems to break up the monotony of it too.
Also, give me all the info you've got. I appreciate it. You can pm me the websites or include them on this thread.
I've heard about running barefoot shorter distances so that you become more aware of problems in your form. What does everyone here think of that? Have you tried it?
