Anyway, I don't think they're really shin splints yet, just early signs of them... I'm cutting back big-time on the running this week to see how that helps. I really don't want to get to the point where I can't run at all! Yeah, I’m sure it’s a result of never having run before and suddenly hitting the treadmill 4-5 times a week.

They are a indicator that you are pushing yourself beyond your conditioning, further than your developed stress level can handle. I have had them and it takes longer to truly recover from than you think; to recover to the point of your training to resume. Need to give yourself a couple weeks of no running...perhps a bit more. To resume too fast or too soon will ONLY delay true recovery and cause considerable lost training time. Shin Splints are of the running devil.
