Big boy running
I’m 29 years old, 255lbs, 6’1” tall and a former athlete (wrestling & judo) so while I’m heavy I still have endurance and strength. I’ve done a work up of walking + jogging for a month while going to the gym to train my legs which has been great. Problem is I’m getting shin splints and plantar fasciitis in my right foot now after every run (tempo runs, intervals for speed work, everything at a quicker pace than a slow jog). What can I do to remedy these issues? I don’t want to stop running and I am losing weight which I’m sure is a big reason as to why I’m getting these issues in the first place so, weight loss aside, what can I do right now to keep getting miles? Thanks, especially to my other big dawgs if you reply!
