Like a core of ice run through me?

Hello everybody.

I am troubled that these deep feelings of inadequacy still run through me like a core of ice.

Is the underlined an expression?

Thanks so much.

No.

The reference is to an ice core (see picture below). It's a strange thing to say, so don't worry if you didn't understand it.
