Although it is Tuesday....I wanted to address a topic of the week, and get some information out there today.
Especially during track season the common topic of Shin Splints is a common injury Athletic Trainers. I decided to hit up the internet for a little bit of information before I really hit the books that Bernie DePalma gave me.

I found this site to be very helpful. Not only does it show the background info of the injury, but it touches upon the stretching aspect of preventing it as well. With being an athlete, and having my dad (track and cross country coach), I hear enough of the phrase "STRETCH NOW" than anyone. Stretching is one of the most important pieces to staying healthy, and ridding of an injury.
