## How it felt
> *(no narrative given yet — confirm achilles/calf state and general feel)*
> Achilles still a bit tight, but better in the new shoes. Wore them all day yesterday, ran in them today for the first time. Still figuring out the fit — "will definitely need to re-tie them." Left shoe is bar/straight-laced, right is the normal cross style. Right foot hurt a bit after stopping and went the slightest bit numb. "This shoe is tighter than the Kiprun for sure."
*(**Achilles:** still present, but milder than the Kiprun — the GT-2000's higher drop + stability is offloading the dorsiflexion demand exactly as the Sep 16 note predicted. **Foot:** the numbness is the logged compression pattern — and today was an accidental A/B test: the bar-laced left foot gave no report, the cross-laced right foot is the one that hurt and numbed slightly. That points straight at midfoot lace pressure, which the bar lacing already reduces. The new shoe being "tighter for sure" raises the stakes: less room for the foot to swell, so the compression threshold (3–4 km) is likely to arrive *sooner*, not later, in these.)*

Still inside the down week, so no volume heroics: the Sunday long run is the actual goal, and this morning already banked the Friday slot. HRV 127 behind it means the base was fully recovered — this wasn't a run on credit.
**On the shoes — the lacing experiment is already telling us the answer.** Left bar-laced, right cross-laced, and only the right foot hurt + numbed slightly: that's midfoot compression, and the bar lacing is the fix for it. Before Sunday, lace **both** feet bar-style (or better, skip the midfoot eyelet over the arch — the wide-lace pattern), and only snug the heel/ankle, never the midfoot. The GT-2000 is tighter than the Kiprun, so there's less swelling room — expect the numbness threshold to sit *closer* than 3–4 km until the upper breaks in and the lacing is right. If it still numbs after both feet are bar-laced loose, that's the signal the fit (not the pattern) is the problem.
