Nah, drinking and athletics don't go hand in hand. Unless you consider men's league softball to be athletics.

TAKES HINTS JUST FINE, STILL DOESN'T CARE

yeah a 10 minute warmup and stretching before running/walking, and definitely a good 5 minutes of stretching after will help alot to prevent shin splints. also drinking alot of water will help, i practically cut off my caffeine intake and feel so much better now than when i was drinking 1-2 of those energy drinks a day.

Peace is a lie
There is only passion
Through passion I gain strength
Through strength I gain power
Through power I gain victory
Through victory my chains are broken
The Force shall set me free

I get shin splints really easily, so at the gym I tend to avoid the treadmill and favour the cross-trainer.

Add walking on your heels to your warm up routine (3 sets of 20-30 yards) and it will help with the shin splints pretty dramatically.
