How did it go?

Not bad. Had a twinch in my left knee. Think I'll get some new running shoes in the sales.

Peter Smith  Looks like a good run. Of what sort of shoes were you thinking?
Richard Wheatley  I'm not sure. I read somewhere you should change your shoes every few months (depending on your mileage), to protect your joints. I guess I've done 750k in the current pair. Do I need to change? Any shoes you recommend?
Peter Smith  Arrgh. I just wrote a long/rambling response to your question ... but RunKeeper couldn't handle it. So've I've put it here: http://www.petersmith.org/org/blog/archives/2010/12/replacing-running-shoes.html
Richard Wheatley  That's really helpful and informative. I'll go to Shoe Science, get a new pair and alternate with the ones I have. I'm in my 50's, so need to be careful I'm not damaging anything. Thanks Peter.
Peter Smith  "I'm in my 50's"; me too.
