Do this for several years & you might be eligible for a couple of new knees! I speak from experience - at the ripe age of 40 I started jogging. got the best shoe I could find and got up to regularily running 5 to 7 miles numerous times a week at a 9 to 10 minute/mile.. I ran on asphalt streets & a padded indoor track. It help me control my weight & let me eat without gaining. After 10 years of this my knees started to give out, some pain & stiffness, ortho scopic surgery helped but eventually I had to stop jogging and went to my bike. A lot easier on my body but I have to spend a lot more time on a bike to get the same workout I got jogging.
