I jog about 4 times a week but just increased it to 5. I have been noticing that last time I jogged my knees hurt. I just got a new pair of running shoes, could that be causing it?

Take a break, from the running and then try the new shoes and see if your knees hurt, Then try your old shoes if your knees stop hurting with your old shoes get another pair like them if possible otherwise just try another pair. My sister had to do this. She went back to the same manufacturer but a different style of shoe. The ones causing her problem had a harder sole than her old ones did and they were made by another company.

I have always trid to stick with the same shoe and company as long as they are using the same last for my particular type of shoe I buy
