That's impressive to train for rando. Good luck with the training. Glad you're 
getting back on your bike and training for something fun.

I have found that riding un clipped helps me avoid knee pain issues. I 
used to clip in (well, wear lycra, ride skinny tires, you know the 
drill) but gave up to better manage hot weather muscle cramps in my 
feet. The knee relief was an unexpected bennie for me. And of course, 
led down that whole unracer trail thing.

Thanks to the miracles of modern science and physiotherapy, I'm
back riding my bike a lot sooner than expected!  I'll still need a
knee replacement eventually, but I was referred to a sports
medicine physician who has been giving me injections of Synvisc -
a synthetic synovial fluid - in my arthritic right knee. I still
have one more injection to go, but after that, the knee should be
good for another 9-12 months! This stuff isn't cheap, and it isn't
covered by my extended medical insurance, but it's a small price
to pay for freedom from pain and greatly increased mobility.

As does float in clipless pedals.  However, neither is going to be of 
much use with advanced osteoarthritis.  For many, synthetic synovial 
fluid is a miracle cure.  Having taken my first injection yesterday, I'm 
hoping I'm among that number.
