About this listen

Mike and Pat discuss a recent article arguing for a new name for "shin splints": Load Induced Medial Leg Pain, or LIMP for short. While this is a fun name for these not fun symptoms, we aren't convinced that the name is actually necessary. What should have been a much more interesting conversation is foiled by wifi connection issues, but we hope you can enjoy our frustration at our difficulty having a conversation.
