	Thanks to all who have posted responses to my questions.  I have
abother one.  If a person has shin splints, is it okay/safe to run.
Assumming that you are doing exercises to strengthen the muscles on the
front of the legs, can you still run?  Also, for these strengthening
exercises, how long should one expect it to take for the exercises to
have an affect combatting the shin splints.
