Re: [RC] shin splints - Truman Prevatt

Doesn't Josie also play volleyball? I expect that before the treadmill.

OK, I get these *sometimes* and Josie's had a real problem with them in competition. She's been walking a lot on the treadmill lately; is that good or bad? Would walking on the treadmill, especially a slope gradually condition the muscles so she'd be less likely to have the problem during competition?


The worst case I ever got was in Vermont doing 100 miles on those ski slopes. It seemed that the downhills were what got me.
