Ok so I that helps - I imagine this is a volume thing. 10km per day consecutively at the same pace even if feeling easy is going to be a lot of load and your knees are feeling it. Maybe add in a shorter bill session or something higher cardio like intervals rather than just distance

Fan of barefoot shoes, but I find they put a big load on feet and lower legs if you’re running in hard ground. I run in them once a week for 3-5km max
If you’re having knee pain, maybe try something with cushioning for the majority of runs for a while?

I’m all about random bloke on internet input.
My warmup consists of walking briskly for 1-2km. I’m only running at 6.30min/km which is much slower than my previous efforts.
Admittedly I’m pushing myself a little- started out walking 10km/day after work with a little jog here and there. Now walking 1km, jogging 10km then another 1km cool down.
I’ve done that the last 3days in a row so suspect I’ve shocked myself a little.
Oh and I’ve been running on stony canal paths in the dark wearing wafer thin vibrams so my feet are taking a bit of a pounding while I htfu again...
