Whenever I'm on the treadmill on incline, I get a very bad pain in both ankles. It's almost too much to bear.... I'm a 30 year old female.Is this something serious? Do I need better shoes? Am I just walking too hard?

I would try an elliptical machine instead of a treadmill. These types of exercise machines are better on all your joints in your legs - especially your knees and ankles.

If you have not trained in a while it could be your tendons getting sore especially if they are supporting a good amount of weight. The elliptical is a great choice.Also take into consideration some people run on the sides of their fee, then rotate in.. This can definitely cause soreness!
