My shins still ache at night, but not as much. This might be stupid, but I decided to see if running slow and then stretching would help. Of course, running fast wasn't even an option. I'm out of shape. Shins still ached after stretching. I need to give it more time.

have you tried heel/toe walking? that helps my shins a ton.

I haven't. I'll have to start doing that. I should also do more calf raises in my lower body workouts. Is it best to wait until the discomfort goes away or just start the exercises and see what happens?

for me, it seems to help the most when my shins are tight and achy. i walk about 50m on my toes, then 50m on my heels x 2-3. calf raises and stretching help too.

Thanks. I'll try it.
