## How it felt
|
|
|
|
> Woke up and prepared a sports drink: 30g table sugar + 1g table salt + a bit of zero-sugar syrup in 5dl water. Energy was fine the whole run — felt good.
|
|
>
|
|
> Weather was 22°C, not sweating much because of the controlled 6'30" pace. Was starting to feel proud… then around the 3.5-4km mark, **both feet went suddenly numb**. Pressure on the sole around the transverse arch / mid-metatarsal area. Pushed through the last km, upped the pace a bit at the end to finish faster (hence the HR bump — wasn't planned).
|
|
>
|
|
> Sat down after finishing — numbness went away in 2-5 minutes. Felt completely normal after, and really calm. Still feel calm now.
|
|
>
|
|
> This exact numbness happened once before (Margaret Island), around the 3-3.5km mark — same spot, same distance threshold.
|
|
>
|
|
> Walked home. Step count now at 11k. Ate cottage cheese + jam mixed in, took creatine.

**Verdict:** Massive distance jump — 5.30 km is a 46% (!) increase over the previous PB (3.63 km). That's a huge leap in one run. The fact that heart rate stayed under control (avg 155, max 169 — comparable to much shorter runs) and pace didn't nosedive (6'30" vs 6'34" on Jul 3) suggests the aerobic base is genuinely improving. Perfect 50/50 ground contact balance is excellent. VO₂Max held at 40. Recovery time of 15h is reasonable for a distance this long. Need to keep an eye on recovery after this effort — it's the longest run yet. 🏃
