some hand numbness at around 1K.

At around 1K I start getting a bit of hand numbness, especially if swimming hard. Anyone else get this?

  • I get it in both hands equally. The only thing I can think of is nerve impingement due to muscles in the upper back/shoulder/arm area enlarging? The hands are fine all other times when not swimming and they seem to be fine when doing intervals with a bit of rest. I think it is the continuous thing that triggers it. I don't think I should be too worried about it? Not sure.
