I've managed to eliminate virtually all joint soreness by changing running style from heel striking to midfoot striking. No more shin splints, sore knees, hip pain, etc.

You don't have to go all barefoot running like Richard but the idea is the same- shorten your stride, land midfoot and run softly.

If you're already doing that then I've got nothing.
