A small problem
Argh!
I don't know what it is, but today when I went running my left leg felt really bad about midway down my shin, in a small patch. It felt like it was being squeezed in a vice, or something. I do think the pain may be in part caused by my posture; I have an awful habit of putting all my weight on my left leg. I'll be keeping an eye on that, to see if it helps.
Hopefully it'll go away, because it's not a pain I can seem to ignore, like a stitch in my side or a regular shin splint, both of which go away after you get used to running. This actually makes me stop running long before I would otherwise have to.
Nevertheless, I am going to continue to run, even if it means start-stopping until the pain stops. I gotta keep it up till March! when my cousin and her friends come.
