My man. I've been hittin am garage sessions at 40 or lower. I feeeel ya! It's cold out there but you're getting it done and I bet you feel GREAT after.

WELCOME! Shin splints suck! go google "tibialas raises" and do them daily :)

rolls. OMG! parents are the worst, but compliments are GREAT. YOU'RE DOING THE RIGHT STUFF SO DONT STOP!

sounds exhuasting!

second - recognize that not all symptoms are the direct source of the problem. Maybe your posture/pelvic tilt is causing your hammies lengthen which is pulling on your calves (or something in line with that notion).Last - I'm not a physio of any sort so do your homework before taking my advice.

I'm with JP and Sean on this (I used to have to vary my steps to save my feet.) HOWEVER, I think there are things you can do. Lax ball. Someone once described stretching to me with a rubber band analogy. If you have a knot in a rubberband, what happens when you stretch it? The knot may get tighter and bother you less, but in terms of a body, you're probably creating (short-term length) in areas that aren't truly the problem. Take a lax ball (baseball, tennis ball, frozen water bottle, handle of a kettle bell, rolling pin -- basically anything about 2-3" in diameter and solid) and start "pinning" and rolling your calf over it. If you find spots that really need relief dig in with caution; hang out on those spots, roll it around bit. I do this with many different spots on my body (neck, gluts, lats, traps, triceps) and it really helps.

I heard dan will get his hands on the ropeless systems :)

I'd start with the daily workouts or search for shorter ones that suit your ability. (But yeah, you can start anywhere).what are your goals?

Man - I need to recommit and start skipping in the AM again... Get my consistency game back. I'd prefer to skip before dinner, but that's been getting washed out :(
