Numb foot!

[Cheese7072]

I get a numb foot when running or on the bikes any ideas? On week 4

I sometimes get numb toes but that’s in the winter when it’s cold and I know I’ve got bad circulation. If it’s just happened a couple of times it may be one of those odd things? But I would get it checked if it’s happening a lot and it’s bothering you . Good luck 😉

I get that too especially on the elliptical machines. No idea why. It goes away quite quickly after I stop.

Are your shoes too small or tied too tightly?

Most people have running shoes at least half a size bigger than normal footwear to allow feet to spread.

Laces to tight.. shoes too tight... ?

[RunBrianRun Graduate]

I’ve googled it and it could be a couple of options, neither of which are any concern so that’s good news. One is to do with constant pressure on the ball of your foot and the other is shoes too small or laces too tight.

Thank you all, I’ll try loosening my shoes 👠

Your shoes can be looser than you think if they fit correctly

I’m a 7 but they will right when running
