It could be: That you had shin splints which do not require an injury to have and then when you were compensating for the pain over used calf muscles. Having said that, i would be cautious and rule out a clot to your calf if you have pain to the calf on compression of the calf or if you dorsiflexed your foot (motion of moving the foot to the face) and have calf pain.
