Intermittent "No Start"

Intermittent "No Start"
My wife has been having intermittent "no start" problems with her mazda 6 (3.0). She says it will crank maybe like one or two times and then just STOP cranking completely and then nothing.....no sounds. It usually will start again after 3-4 attempts with the same symptom occurring.
This problem usually happens after driving like 20-30 miles, or more and then shutting the car off, to go into a store, and trying to start it again.
It doesn't happen on cold starts or after short trips around town running errands.
Any ideas? I've been tempted to buy a new battery because this one "looks" old and it at least 5 years old (Deka battery) and nobody bothered to punch out the month and year of when it was bought.
