Compartment syndrome: You really need an thorough orthopaedic evaluation. Diagnoses that come to mind include: exercise induced exertional compartment syndrome, tibial stress injury, or a myriad of "blood flow" issues. A good history, physical, and iamging evaluation will get to the bottom of what is affecting your legs.
