Running + shin splints + gadgets

Went for the usual work run today and had to cut it short, had some pretty epic pain in the shins / calves almost couldn't walk still was ok.

Better than doing nothing at all.

Got my Qstarz BTQ1300s worked a treat with decent GPS logging.

So that means now I wear the heart rate monitor and the GPS tracker during a run.

Just call me the gadget runner ;)

The route we run is actually pretty good - is around the 5.5km mark but cut short today.

GPS log via mapmyrun here

The HRM stats:
Distance: 4.3km
Avg HR: 142
Max HR: 172
Duration: 28:36

All in all not bad - just have to work a bit harder, push through the pain a bit more and I'll get there :)
