Running

Just went out for my first run since high school today (any extra training=good).
It was nice, but it hurt my shins. Am I missing a technique? I feel like I didn't really challenge myself, but also that I couldn't thanks to non-muscle pain.

If it's your first run in ages it's most likely just a case of muscles needing to adapt.

Alternatively it may be the case that you're over-striding, try to shorten your strides a bit, doing so will lessen the strain being applied to your anterior tibialis.

What do you mean by uber-shoes?
