I know, probably not that big a deal to some people, but I've been nursing messed up shins for a long time now, so its a big deal to me.
Only had time for a quick workout so I decided I'd try out running on hard surfaces and headed out to the Lake Murray Dam. It was 6pm, so already really dark outside. Started on the Lexington side, which meant I had a headwind and constant blinding headlights for the first half. Made sure to focus on the right form. Short steps, landing lightly on my mid or forefoot. First and second miles went well, I slowed slightly for the third mile, and then took off on the fourth. Ran a faster 2nd half than the first half. Finished in 27:08. Not a PR for me or anything, although certainly quicker than most people. No pain though so fingers crossed, we'll see how my shins do.
