alright so i got back a while ago. I did half a mile in like 4 or 5 minutes without too much cardio trouble, but my shins in the other hand were absolutely killing me. I had to lower the speed and then stop for a few seconds. When i was able to continue i noticed my shins are holding me back, not my cardio. I could push through cardio, its not back but i can't even walk when these ****ers hurt. Im looking online and i see there are shin sleeves/wraps that help, theres also different shoes and it could be my mechanics of running. GK pm'd me some good advice on some shoes imma look into. Ill look into others as well and see if i can buy them tomorrow before i train to see if i notice a difference. Before i saw everyones advice on stimulants i had already taken some pre-workout (half scoop of outfit), 100mg extra of caffeine and 25 mg of ephedrine. Not sure if it helped, but i didn't feel bad at all. I don't have much time to try different things so ill just stick to a little caffeine and ephedrine. BTW i did the mile in 14 minutes. Have to do 1.5 miles in 13 minutes so got a long way to go but if i can fix the shin splints i think i got a shot. After i did that i did some elliptical where i didn't have to move my heel much. I did that at a heart rate between 150-160 for 8 minutes and i was fine. Thats another sign my cardio is at least decent (for my standards, of course). Ill be going as hard as i can tomorrow and saturday and sunday ill do soft jogging in the morning and rest up the run is on monday at 7 am.
