shin splints. ouch.

i've been having some pain in my right foot after some hard workouts lately so i decided to get it checked out. i thought that it may have been related to an injury that i got at the end of may, but it turns out it's a problem all its own. enduring what was without a doubt the most painful and agonizing physiotherapy experience of my life, i was surprised to learn that i have shin splints. and it looks like the culprit is my running shoes.

luckily it's nothing too serious and can be sorted out with some stretching and therapy, but i do have to get a new pair of shoes which sucks because i've only been running in this pair for about 5 weeks.

i suppose i should be grateful that it's an easy fix. i'm not out for the season or anything so that's pretty sweet. i'm just out $200 for another pair of stupid shoes.
