Just done run one of Couch to 5k 😊. Only problem in about halfway through my foot started to go numb, any advice?

It could be your shoes are too tight. My husband had the same and that seemed to be the problem

Thank you - I’ve just been looking on line and they said the same, so I’ll give that a go

You can have your gait checked for free at some places - decathlon does it I think. That might help

Welcome to the forum and well done on getting started.

This guide to the plan is essential reading healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

Numbness is often a sign of restricted blood flow, so as suggested maybe shoes are too tight. Most people's feet swell when running, so shoes can get tighter during a run.

Enjoy your journey.
