Jogging and foot numbness

Hi Doc,I’m a 38 y.o. male who about a month and a half ago started walking for exercise several times per week.
Within the last two weeks, I’ve started adding a bit of jogging to the routine in order up the pace, up my heart rate, etc.
After several minutes of jogging, I been to experience a numbness in my feet.
It stops within a few moments of returning to a walking pace. Any clue as to why this may ocurr and what I can do to prevent it?

    I can not tell you for certain. There are many variables involved. Things I would look at are how worn out are your shoes? Do you have any low back pain?
