First thing you have to figure out is if you have flat feet. I have flat feet and it's not all unusual for me to get shin splints especially if I'm not wearing good shoes.

For example a person like me shouldn't be wearing Adidas Sambas because they have no arch support so basically it's like running without shoes.

I actually believe it or not have shin splints right now. It happened when I was chasing after my dog down to driveway and I had my Sambas on. When I got back up to the top of my driveway my shins were in so much pain.

So figure out if you have flat feet get some shoes with good arch support and take it easy until you recover from it. Usually it takes a week or so.
