Question: Do you think wearing compression socks whilst running would be beneficial to me with shin splints?

Answer: I'm not sure about this one, i think they help with fatugue more in your legs, shin splints is something to do with compartment syndrome most of the time- where the muscles need to expand when doing exercise but there isn't enough space for it to do so, therefore it pushes on

Athletics: The Runner's Christmas Survival Guide

20.05.12

Is it just me, or did the holidays come all of a sudden this year? I feel like it was just September and I was thinking about the upcoming turkey dinner of Thanksgiving. Now I have to think of the Christmas one! The holiday season is a time where runs often get forgotten in order to replacing running through the malls, and your post-run protein gets replaced with more fruit cake, and eggnog. Although the holidays are a time to loosen the belt a bit and relax, I think that running and eating well can be incorporated into your schedule, or at least, attempted to. This is why; I have come up with my personal version of the runner's holiday survival guide to help you along the way.

The holidays should be a time to treat yourself. And this time of year, there really aren't that many road races (especially for 5k-ers), so you can potentially do more damage than good, if you continue to pound away on the pavement. We all need a little break now and then!
