Sorry about the shin! Hurry and go find a dead bat! Good luck inthe race tomorrow. Advil and ice??? is that a good idea?

Good luck tomorrow Barry! Marion is right, ice and advil!

Did you ever have a bone scan or MRI done to your leg to diagnose the shin splints, or was it just your doctor examining you?

Thanks, i took an ice bath and i think that is helping. Also, on the dead bat, will you go back and take a picture of the one you saw and send it to me :), just kidding. :) Also thanks for the advice, I am going to take two aleve to help with the pain...

I had a x-ray taken and it showed no stress fracture. I think i am just running to fast and running too miles at once. I have been wondering how you are doing, are you adjusting to no running?
