Weird twinge on the arch of my foot?

Lately I’ve been getting this weird little twinge on the arch of my foot that I’ve never felt before.

It doesn’t hurt, it feels like a little electric shot in the center of my foot just before the balls of my foot.

I notice it most when walking barefoot.

Anyone ever hear of anything like this before?

umm YES
I had exactly that like a few months ago.
Now I have chronic foot pain that I believe is plantar fasciatis.
I'm wearing compression socks as we speak.

SRS

Hopefully you don't have that but I would suggest not walking barefoot for a while. Get comfy sneakers.

Not a tradie.

But I did start doing HIIT classes 5 times a week about 3/4 weeks ago.

I used to get that a lot. Always thought it was weird but never thought much of it. Hasn't happened in a while.

Nah. I tried to get an appointment but couldnt get schedules to work.
When it happened I was in bed ready to fall asleep. Then it felt like a nerve jolt right under my foot every 10-20 seconds, then went away. Then weeks later like chronic pain.
Also I feel like a month or 2 before that I started doing hour long runs on the treadmil. Was thinking marathon training lol.
Now I only do bike cardio

But now barefoot hurts the most. Comfy sneakers are much more comfy. Feel like a boomer lol

Like was already said you may be developing plantar fascitis.

I had it for about 9 months when I was wearing shoes without enough arch support a few years ago. I added some Dr Scholls arch supports and it went away in a few days.

Just keep that in mind in case it gets any worse. It's a very common problem. Walking barefoot or wearing shoes without arch support will exacerbate it and wearing shoes or insoles with built up arch support will often help cure it.
