Frustrating...

Well day 2 of running.  I tried to take it easy on my shins today.  I ran for about 4 minutes then walked.  My shins were good for about 2 rounds of that and then the pain kicked.  I only got about 1.6 miles in since my shins were again killing me.  I know there will be a payoff to this in the end.  It is just frustrating that its not my leg muscles or lungs that are giving out, but these shin splints.  All the time I played basketball last year I never had them.  I played basketball a couple times this month and haven't had an issue with my shins.  I guess its just a different type of exercise and I need to get used to being in pain for a while.  Still staying strong.
