I am 29 yrs old. I ran while in the Marines for 4 yrs; landed on my heel then. Now since a little over a yr running in Vibram Five Fingers I land on the ball of my foot. Now i run indoors on a track at a local fitness club and outside when weather permits. Treadmill is the last resort. At this time I am on a program from Hal Higdons web site; so I average about 9-15miles a week. My shins hurt at first but I took a week off and started back and backed off the miles and pain is gone. I would not run any other way.
