  • Legs hurt after Running?

    I started this Valet job, and walking is not an option. I'm slightly overweight but I do as my job asks and I keep running. It's a lot of stop and go running. Some nights it's a constant run, others it's run and rest for 30 mins, either way I'm on my feet 5-7 hours a night.

    Shin splints have come and gone. But there's this ache throughout my legs that KILLS! I have to take 5 Ibuprofen before every shift.

    I notice this pain most when I do a good length of a run then get in the car to run it back, while I'm driving my legs throb so bad!

    Background Info: Been working this place for almost 2 months, been eating bananas. I'm 23, 6'4" and about 240 lbs and try and stretch whenever I can, but it doesn't feel like a stretching problem.
