I get shin-splint on a regular basis. Regular as in usually following the summer, depending upon my training cycle.

My roadwork program (currently, as occasionally I do switch things around)..

I usually 10K for two months, then 20K for a month or so. Then I drop down to a mere 20 mins of interval sprinting on the running machine ( 3 mins fast - 1 min slow, for five rounds ) flat out to my max each run. I doo the interval running for about 4-6 weeks, before giving the legs a rest for 2-4 weeks.

Everyone has a different body type and bodyweight so things are generally different. If I am sitting around 95-97 kgs then I don't get the old shin spints.

If it it following the summer months, which is when I usually up my weight training and the calories, (big ice cream fan) and I am around 104-106 kgs it is pretty much a definate that I will get shin-splints.

Treatments for myself are most of the above, hot-n-cold treatments, anti inflams, new trainers and rest - by way of switching to mountain biking.

I have kept a training diary for over 15 years now, listing everything I have done, how I felt, injuries etc.... ( something I picked up from tick-tock, thankyou Mr H. ).

Hope you can relate to something from my post and that it helps, (maybe monitoring your bodyweight etc....). If not, best of luck with shin-splints anyway.
