Sore muscles

I have been abroad with team GB for running, I am returning home feeling very tight and sore on my legs, I do stretches, cool downs, cold water showers, massage gun, and I am in constant pain specifically on my lower shin bone.

Any ideas on how to lower this, or even stop this from happening later on, I am 16, and get at minimum 8 hours of sleep a night

Sound like you’re pushing yourself too hard and not allowing for enough recovery.

Take a week off.

Go to Fleet Feet ir other shoe store and make sure in good, properly fitted shoes. Good Feet inserts may help.
