<human>: Could you distill the essence of the text into 1-3 sentences?

Hi runnit, In the last few months I've added running into my program and was looking for any tips on how I've been going.

I've been out to the athlete's foot and got a new pair of running shoes that apparently supports my gait (based on the really expensive machine I walked on). They are Nike Lunarglide 2 - I tend to roll in at the end of a step I think (don't know if that means under pronated, over pronated or there's something wrong with my prostate - basically my weight passes over my left foot like this bracket '(' and for my right foot this bracket ')' ). I have to say it's a lot more comfortable than my old crap runners, now my calves and to a lesser degree my shins are a bit sore after a run, rather than getting hip and ankle pain like I was. Running is a lot easier as well. I generally run 3 times a week at the moment, two 6km runs (36 mins each) and a 3 km run (about 15 mins). Working my way up to 10km in an hour.

I know minimalist running is all the rage here but for someone doing so little mileage is it really necessary, I really like my soft squishy shoes.

Do the calf and shin soreness indicate any particular problem with my running style, it feels like DOMS more than anything just being careful.

I try and think about heel striking when I'm running but it's hard to really know if I'm doing that, do you need a video of me running to know for sure?

I also ride my bike about 20 km's a day as well (to work and back), and do body weight exercises so my muscles usually feel a tiny bit stiff all over most of the time. Calf and shins soreness I can directly attribute to running though.
<bot>: geez sorry for the wall of text, questions are the last 4 little bits, just read that and ignore the rest
