Saw sports doc, thinks he can rule out stress fracture and compartment syndrome (but went and had x-ray as well to see if anything on there), doing a course of hardcore shin splint treatment for 3 weeks to see how they react, in that time not allowed to do anything to badly aggravate them e.g. long/hard runs, bit of a bugger but I haven't really been doing that anyway and its the last 2 weeks of uni and I have work coming out my ears for the next 3 weeks so its not too bad timing. If not improving by 3 weeks will get bone scan.
Ride round Albany with loop round mega centre, went out not because I needed/wanted to go training but because it was such an awesome afternoon and my new shoes and pedals arrived yesterday, feel way better than the mt bike combo. Everything still tight and sore from Sunday
