I have been running with the metronome as suggested by Danny Dreyer in the book Chi Running. Here is a video showing how to use it with a really simple reason why to use it.
So far so good, I started on the recommended 85 steps per minute and have upped it to 87 spm and find that comfortable. I am now continuing to get it into my muscle memory that I can continue to keep the cadence when I don't have the metronome.

I look at all these things with interest, but I’ve been running 29 years now with the last 15 injury free. I’d rather not change anything now.
Haven't tried a metronome but some pieces of music have just the right beat and I notice I automatically adjust my cadence to it.
Wow, the famous Sandals girl. BTW, I just started using a metronome on EVERY run. I use it as tool to take small steps and keep my feet landing under my center of gravity. If I can do that then I won't have to revert to Huarache sandals :-)
