All good apart from pins and needles in my left foot. Just the left one. What do you all think I can do - had it last week too.

Try loosening your laces or lacing differently. Google methods of lacing running shoes and you will keep yourself amused for hours.

Its either laces too tight or possibly shoes too small 🤔

What size shoe do you wear and what size are your trainers? The trainers should be at least half a size bigger than you normally wear. I had trainers in my normal size and was getting numbness in my toes. Went to a proper running shop today and got new trainers half a size bigger. Haven’t run in them yet but they feel so much better. Sx
