Country girl starting out

I agree with what's above. You really don't want to skip your rest days when you're first starting out, because that makes it REALLY easy to get injured. Shin splints are caused a lot of times by over working your muscles. If you're really gung ho about working out every day, strength train on your off days. You really should be any way, because too much running and not enough strength can actually end up making you lose progress. A good mix of both will keep your metabolism on track, and give you a good balanced workout. Make sure you're getting plenty of protein and BCAAs (branched chain amino acids) afterward though, to help your muscles recover better, and fight fatigue! Also complex carbs are your friend!
