If you are truly coming off the couch, your leg tissues may need more time to tolerate the increased physical exercise, especially if you are carrying more weight than is ideal. Since you have already tried several of the usual training modifications, you may need to ramp up your activity more gradually.
The brisk warmup that the couch to 5K program recommends, for intance, may be a full workout for some people, at least initially. If you are having trouble with shin pain, you may not be ready for the demands of running until you have the core strength and you have toughened your leg tissues with repeated exercise.

If you’ve never run before, I suggest starting with a 5 minute out-and-back walk (two and a half minutes out from home and back) then add a minute every day or two until you can walk easily for 30 minutes. Once you’ve crossed the 30 minute threshold, start como in some running. After five minutes of warm-up walking, jog (or run slowly) one block, then walk one block, then walk until you’ve completed 30 minutes. Every day or two add another block to the running portion until you’re able to alternate walk-runs for the full 30 minutes. Once this goal is achieved, increase the running portion to two blocks of running and one block walking, then three blocks, etc. until you can run for the full 30 minutes.
If you have pain or excess fatigue, go back to your previously tolerated level for a day or two. New exercisers should start with an every-other-day routine to improve success, but may eventually move to six days a week on a “hard-easy” rotation. The off or easy days can be used for strengthening activities.
For fitness, the routine should be on an every other day basis. For weight loss, the volume will often need to be increased to six or seven days per week and an hour each day, but this should be at walking intensity, not the higher intensity of running.
