If you have been diagnosed with shin splints by a service physician, you should be under profile prohibition of running. If you remain on profile for a significant amount of time, you could be reviewed for medical discharge. You will have to go on sickcall if you have not begun this process. From there, medical services will take over. If you have not been diagnosed with shin splints, and are excusing yourself from physical training, beware; you could be reviewed for Failure to Repair, Failure to Follow Orders, or Dereliction of Duty. Go to sickcall.
