    Lower leg pain - but it's not Shin Splints

    I was walking to the basement to get something today and found my old arch supports supplied from the MIR when I was in the reserves, thought "hey, what the hell" and put them into my running shoes, then through a backpack onto my back with about 30pounds in it and my arm weights and went for a...

    Stolen, found/returned medals (merged)

    What piece of shit dirtbag would do such a thing...honestly. I've gotten my fingers crossed that they were misplaced by someone and they'll turn up, or that a security camera somewhere picked up whoever stole them. Either way, I hope the hero gets them back and plants his foot up the thieve's ass.

    Lower leg pain - but it's not Shin Splints

    I went to the doctors today, he contacted a few others trying to figure out what the issue is as it stumped him and a few others. He also talked to teh folks that do the testing, etc for Compartment Syndrome and they said they wont do anything at all until it turns acute which is lame. So hes...

    Lower leg pain - but it's not Shin Splints

    Ive tried several pairs of running shoes, at first I thought it was because the ones I had weren't wide enough and kind of worn out, so I got some new ones (went to one of those stores that fit you and check how you walk, etc). Bought some Adidas that fit nicely (a bit larger to let my feet...

    Lower leg pain - but it's not Shin Splints

    I did a long stretch this morning, much longer than usual (was talking to my brother in law on the phone lol) and then I did my run which I also ramped up a bit just to see how fast the issue would return. I was actually able to run faster and further and got tired before my ankles started to...

    Lower leg pain - but it's not Shin Splints

    Lower leg pain - but it's not Shin Splints

    Hey all, I've been having this problem off and on, and it seems to be getting a bit better, but I thought I'd ask here to see if anyone knows about this issue. When Im jogging or doing a hard walk my lower legs start bugging me. It's not Shin Splints so Im not worried about that but the issue...

    Actually getting in....

    Try to get to see a neurologist, that may help you especially if you can get them to write if off as not an issue. It's even better if your not having them anymore.

    Another Quiet Hero

    What I meant Roy is that there are people like us who are always aware of the sacrifices made by the brave men and women before us, then there's the people who aren't aware or who haven't been educated. The current educational system should have a larger portion of their Social Studies /...

    Finally got my answer to m post about Air Force recruitment from the CFRC

    Ive been putting up with the job I absolutely hate for well over a few years now due to lack of anything else in my area.
