Fixed that and it shifted to the shins... and just before Christmas, the pain stuck around far longer than normal, into the evening, so I decided I'd take the 5 days as a break. Still hurt a few days ago, but not nearly as bad... but, it's pretty immediate when I start jogging, so thinking it could be the shoes or need more work learning how to walk.
I lower my heels off a step for a stretch and will put on foot behind the other... but, will try different stretches as well

Sounds like shin splints. Lay off hiking up hills/inclines for awhile. Maybe a couple weeks.
