I seem to keep getting pins and needles in my left foot when running. Happened yesterday about 6km in to a 10k, but I've had it at shorter distances before. Had it with 2 different pairs of trainers, different socks, and both on road and on trails. Always the left foot and never the right. Pretty sure I wasn't dehydrated last night either. Any ideas on how to stop it?

I had similar for a while. Wasn't every run, just sometimes.

Do you get shin splints often as well? It's related to that IME. Cure that and the pins and needles stop as well
