Week 8, day 3 ends with a 5k run. I you can already run a 5k, you should start at week 9, day 1.

I've repeated days many times. You just lose your prior information for that particular workout which I think is no biggie.

There are multiple stretching exercises on Pinterest to aid/avoid shinsplints. The one I use and that works for me is to stand on a step with your toes hanging over the edge and knees bent (similar to a ski position) and flex your toes up and down as quickly as you can for 30 seconds. Repeat 3 times.
