Either the surface you're running on or the sole of your shoe will cause the muscle to seperate from the bone. The only sure fix is rest and ice compressed against the shin. Also invest in some insoles that match the natural arch of your foot.

How do you get rid of shin splits?
You must ice the shins down. Pack in ice until the pain of the cold diminishes. Remove the ice until normal feeling returns, and repeat. Do this once or twice a day until the pain of the shin splints is gone. You will find that ice can do miracles. Shin splints result from the pointing of the toe under weight, as in running, or jumping, as soft tissue behind the shin separates from bone. Swelling results, and actually causes further damage. Ice stops the swelling, and once the ice is removed, allows healing to begin. If possible, minimize or halt the activity that is causing the injury. Icing works best when applied immediately, or as soon as possible after the injury is incurred. Never apply heat, until all your shin pain and swelling has passed. Only then will heat facilitate healing. Experienced layman.
