Forgive the length of this post but hopefully someone has been through something similar and can share their experience. I ran for years about 12-15 miles per week (3 days/week) in neutral shoes and never had any physical problems. Last year I wanted to increase my training and add some races so I got professionally fitted at a running store and was told that I over-pronate and needed stability shoes. I tried Nike Air Triaxx and eventually Brooks Adrenalines and both caused inside shin splints. I also noticed that my footstrike was louder in the stability shoes - noticeably slapping the pavement. I never was able to increase mileage much b/c the shin splints set right in. it got to the point where walking hurt. I saw an ortho specialist (who is also an experienced marathon runner) and he said my arches were a bit low but not too bad and that I didn't need stability shoes. With his advice, I ran a 7.2 mile road race last year in Asics 1120s with Spenco arch supports. It helped but soreness lingered. I took a lot of time off to completely heal. I started again very slowly (2 and 3 mile runs) in the 1120s with arch supports and the shin pain came back. So, now I'm back to neutral Asics with no arch supports and gradually getting towards 20 miles/week. I still have inside shin soreness that goes away about a mile or two in and I feel it the next day. Things are better but the soreness just won't go away completely. I've only run back-to-back days once and was OK but I usually need a day or two to let my shins recover. My left ankle is definitely rolling in a bit but my knees and hips are aligned perfectly. I never have hip, knee or back pain. I'm diligent about stretching, calf raises, toe raises, shin stretches, etc. I seem to be stuck in between not enough support (neutrals) and too much support (stability shoes). I just started breaking in a pair of Asics Landreths. Thanks for reading. Just wondering if anyone else has been caught in between this particular rock and hard place. Lastly, the only other difference between this year and last year is that I did a lot of weight lifting over the winter and added about 7 or 8 lbs.
