Incredible medicine for aging well: Walking!

If I could walk a distance that would be one way to measure it. Unfortunately, my ability to walk is limited to the walking I do in the house and what I do in errands or grocery shopping. Some people count steps; I'm not in that generation.
How are my new shoes? I'm comparing Brooks GHOST ?? with new Brooks GHOST 15. The new shoes have a lot more cushioning, and the shoes hold my feet in better alignment. I've noticed that my feet are beginning take on an inward curve; these shoes prevent that. (I haven't worn them to the point where they have accomodated to the shape of my foot.) Looks like these are keepers.

Yes, new shoes are typically like that. I'm glad they worked for you.
From my experience a good quality shoe, like Brooks, will last the average person about 2 years of daily casual use such as walking about the house, errands and shopping, if that's the only or mostly only shoe you wear. The shoe will still look very good but it will have lost some of it's shape, support and the midsole will be noticeably compressed. Then it's time for a new pair.
