Foot Cramp W7r2

During the last 5mins of my 25min run I started to get a cramp across the middle of my foot off & on. I left my proper trainers at my caravan so won’t get them until the weekend so I wore my old trainers that did me well until recently. Could it be my trainers, it’s still cramping even after half an hour? Any suggestions how to ease?

P.s. Photo from the weekend for any whiskey lovers out there

Could be your shoes are too tight.

Shoelaces - tying is an art! Or was it because you were carrying a bottle of whiskey on your feet?

Not too found of whiskey 😂. Yes perhaps my laces though didn’t think they were too tight. I’ll try looser on Wednesday.
