Shin splits come from poor hip rotation, try working on hip flexibility and driving through your glutes more.

Foot thing probably comes down to form too... maybe join a running club?

I used to be a competetive runner (sprints) when I was a teenager

yeah sounds like shin splits, which fucking suck. do what >>41267564 says and just take it easy for running for a while or else itll get worse.

Pain could result from an inflexible ankle causing the shin to take the pressure instead of the ankle changing angles. You should try to gain ankle flexibility to see if its the cause of the pain/numbness.You could also be heel striking, you should check your form out.

ive recently been trying to run with my glutes instead of my knees, and havent had shin pain since

also make sure youre running on the balls of your feet

The thing is that my feet went numb in the first phase, only afterwards did my shins started hurting

As this seems to be the running thread, I've just completed a 10k race.

Is a full marathon in October too ambitious? Should I focus on the half this time round and a full next year?

The thing also is that I didn't have any complains last summer, when I was doing 8 - 10k almost every day, for 2 months

Sounds like nerve damage. Make sure you don't heel strike.

>>41267717

you should look into revamping your form, watch a bunch of videos on it
