Just above your ankles.....is the pain on the front of your leg or on the back of your leg? Front=shin splints Rear=achilles/calves

If it's the fronts you may want to look into a custom orthotic foot insert for your shoe. Again, you haven't used these muscles in a while I surmise, and I bet after a while they'll start to go away, so don't give up in the mean time!
