my physio got me doing tons of these when I had shin splints

He also did some dry needling on my shins - I don't advise watching that if you don't like needles....
I've been happily declining into middle age for a while, but after a health scare a few years back i started doing a bit here and there. I like cycling obviously but i really enjoy running. Unfortunately i seem to pick up shin pain easily at the moment. I never used to when i ran more often so i'm hoping it'll wear off. I've slowly increased my miles although im deliberately only running once a week.to the point where i'm comfortable pootling about the park run. I've had gait analysis and suchlike and bought the expensive trainers (worth it for the sales bloke looking aghast when i said i usually ran in converse or boots depending on the weather).
The shin pain is still flaring up occasionally so i was wondering if the more experienced runners here have any ideas to limit it and eventually remove it all together?
