Nor did the compression sleeve help, nor did the foot inserts stop the pain. I should have realized no level of support was going to heal damage that already existed. I had two options, either let it rest and have weaker cardio (which I didn’t do), or gun it on it to reach an aerobic threshold where my cardio would actually improve and hurt it more (which I did)

Taking the past 5 days off before the race Sunday but will be expecting to run in pain

All I got for dieting was a nice pic. Getting a good pic is all about lighting and angles tbh. I’ll try for a full body one sometime
Have you tried tens therapy for your shins yet? They are really incredible for targeting muscles behind bones. Unless its an old fracture? If you are more specific of what the pain is I can make a good recommendation for therapy.
