I run 20 miles or so each and every week. [...] My runs are always in the 5-8 mile range due to time restraints with family and work. [...] The knees feel great. [...] I just have the simple goal of running 20-25 miles each and every week. Am I setting myself up for eventual failure or injury? Is a plan and variety of runs a requirement? Thanks.

Well, since you have no goals I'd think it's impossible to fail .
Ok, so I'm 53 and I run 20 miles or so each and every week. ... I just have the simple goal of running 20-25 miles each and every week... Am I setting myself up for eventual failure or injury? Is a plan and variety of runs a requirement? Thanks.
