I had to abort tonights run a mile from the end because of pins and needles in my feet. This has only happened twice before on 2nd of June. Then a few minutes before my heart problems in Canada, so obviously I decided to walk. I walked from 2.8 miles (last arrow) for half a mile then stopped the timer on my watch it then shows a straight dotted line to end (not the exact path). I was trying to beat this run and was on course to do so, I was feeling OK. This is the hardest I have pushed my heart since the problems.
I think I can explain why the pins and needles happened. The Atenolol stops my heart beating so fast, but because I was pushing hard my heart was having to work more but was being blocked by the tablets from beating as fast as it needed to. So it couldn't pump enough blood to my extremities (my feet). This isn't good when I'm trying to improve my times and get fit for the Great North Run but fits with what the doctor told me, that will be in another post.

I could be nothing to do with my recent problems, it could be shoes laced too tightly but dont think they were or socks. Which is what I thought in June. Wonder if they were the same socks (hope so)!
