Question
I am 30 yr old, weight 78 kg, i used to run in a week 4-5 days only. For 10min i used to run and then walk.And again i used to run and then walk. By running on the road is their any problem in knees. I used to run 3-4 years ago. Now recently i started. What types of shoes are preffered. It costs too much or less.

Answer
I would be careful of running on the same side of the road, since they are banked and your legs will have some tightness issues on one side of your body (one leg will be landing longer than the other, causing some illiotibial band issues).  
The types of shoes should have good support & cushioning for you, and it honestly takes some trial & error to find the right pair for your foot, and also for your budget.  The best I can recommend is going to a shoe store to find out the pair that fits best for you, talk with the salesmen and ask if they are avid runners, and what type of shoe would work best for runners.
