Bilateral shin splints (so painful that I had to take breaks and stretch). This sucks.
I keep losing weight. I definitely need more vegan protein because my muscles have melted (I understand what GF meant by muscle cannibalism).

shin splints are the worst, especially when you are late for your flight

Yes they bad when you are patrolling for hours too.
Yesterday I walked 14 kilometers and today 10.
I have what I believe is a pinched nerve. I have an appointment with the manual therapist tomorrow. No lifting until it's healed.

Big time respect for hitting the iron hard AND doing all that cardio to boot. Good Lord attempting to put in all those miles as you do would kill my azz haha.
