Some of the best ways to lessen the pain of shin splints include adjusting to the proper footwear for foot type, massage, decreasing stride length, running on softer surfaces and avoiding running on hills, especially downhill. You also need to mix up cardio workouts; cross-train and do some calf stretching.
