So, I did my 6 miles Saturday and felt o.k. afterwards. I had some pain but not too bad. I DID slow down some and I walked a few times. I did my XT on Sunday and ran on the treadmill Tuesday. I decided to take Mark's advice and call Wayne J. What a super guy!!! I saw him today and he said I do have shin splints, but they're not bad. He gave me some additional stretches to do morning and night and told me to keep icing and taking ibuprofen. He said I did NOT have to stop running--unless the pain got a lot worse. I was glad to hear that. So, I will be very diligent about stretching from now on. :-)
I will not be at the run on Saturday, unfortunately, as I am headed to SanDestin. But, fortunately, Kim and Carey will be there, too, so we are all planning to meet up around 5 a.m. Saturday morning. I hate that I'm going to miss the group run and especially the party that night, but I know everyone will have a great time. I'll think of you all when I'm lounging by the pool or walking along the beach. :-)
Good luck to everyone Saturday. WE ARE MARATHONERS!!!

I hate you have to go to SanDestin. What a hardship. Oh well, try to endure it as best you can!
We will miss you Saturday. Have fun!

I'm glad he said you can still run and hope your exercise help you as much as the ones for my back have already helped me. And, poor you, you just HAVE to go to Sandestin!
