Personal:

I decided to join to hold myself accountable for my training and because I love learning from others running experiences.  I just started running a little over a year ago and have a lot to learn.  I work fulltime as a Manager of Telecommunications for Intermountain Healthcare and go to school online through Weber State University.  If you want to know more check out my blog: www.runningfortrevor.blogspot.com

30 minutes weights.  worked chest and shoulders. 

8.5 miles on the treadmill.  I was going to just run easy today due to the shin pain I have been having but after a long slow warm-up I felt really good and decided to give the workout a try.  I iced all night last night and foam rolled so I felt fresh and ready to go.  4x1 mile repeats at 10k pace.  I made sure to be smart and promised myself I would stop at the first sign of any pain. 6:54, 6:49, 6:45, 6:58.  Started to feel a slight bit of pain in the shin/calve area during the last repeat so I slowed it down.  Overall I felt really great.

Foam rolled afterwards and slapped on the compression sleeves. 

PM:  2.5 miles nice and easy

Be careful, that shin pain is what took away my St. George! Nice mile repeats!!

Where does your shin hurt? If it's medial, you may be irritating your tibia, and that's the most likely place for a stress fracture. Be careful, girl.

I was thinking the same as Kam. be careful. Speed work is a sure fire way to take something hurting into an injury. Oh boy, I hate injuries!

Very good workout! You are rolling!

Just be really careful about the shin. At this point you're 1.5 weeks out from your 10K, so you can't really do anything to truly improve your fitness anyways. So take some extra rest, get that shin feeling better, and hopefully you'll be feeling 100% as you start the buildup to Boston. Get it feeling better now so you don't have to worry about it, and it doesn't become a real injury.

i will add in my "be careful". shins can be really, really unkind.
