Here's a shot of me close to a full sprint about ten metres short of the finish line. Check out my left leg. While the shot was not taken from a good angle for a gait analysis, I appear to be overstriding with the left leg which is about to hit the ground too far in front of my body and centre of gravity. It is this overstriding that is the primary cause of my shin splints, hence the need for me to do glute firing exercises and possibly add treadmill running to my regime.
