There is no association between moderate long-distance running and the future development of osteoarthritis. Furthermore, the evidence suggests that neither heavy mileage nor the number of years running are contributory to the future development of osteoarthritis.

Runners, both male and female, have approximately 40% more bone mineral than matched controls. Female runners, but not male runners, appear to have somewhat more sclerosis and spur formation in spine and weight-bearing knee x-ray films, but not in hand x-ray films. There were no differences between groups in joint space narrowing, crepitation, joint stability, or symptomatic osteoarthritis. Running is associated with increased bone mineral but not, in this cross-sectional study, with clinical osteoarthritis.
LINK
Long-distance running among healthy older individuals was not associated with accelerated radiographic OA. These data raise the possibility that severe OA may not be more common among runners.
LINK
This eight-year, follow-up study of our original 18 nonrunners and 17 runners obtained information on 16 runners (12 of whom were re-examined) and 13 nonrunners (10 of whom were re-examined) in 1992. One runner was deceased (cancer), 14/15 were exercising, 11/15 were running, and 3/15 were engaged in other recreational exercises. In 1992, as in 1984, pain, swelling, and range of motion of hips, knees, ankles, and feet were comparable for runners and nonrunners, and radiographic examinations (for osteophytes, cartilage thickness, and grade of OA) of hips, knees, ankles, and feet were without notable differences between groups. Thus, we did not find an increased prevalence of OA among our runners, now in their seventh decade. These observations support the suggestion that running need not be associated with predisposition to OA of the lower extremities.
LINK
Recreational runners had a lower occurrence of OA compared with competitive runners and controls. These results indicated that a more sedentary lifestyle or long exposure to high-volume and/or high-intensity running are both associated with hip and/or knee OA. However, it was not possible to determine whether these associations were causative or confounded by other risk factors, such as previous injury.

quote:not necessarily. That’s sub 6 pace which is flying. To get there you probably need a solid run of 70+ mile weeks which would be right around 300 or so miles for the month.
Additionally, if you hit that many miles in a month you should be a legit 2:30-2:40 marathoner if you're doing it right.
People don’t realize how much actual running goes into being a good much less elite level distance runner. It’s much more than just natural talent.

No you didn’t.

That’s putting to much strain on your organs.

This is all correct as well. If you run wrong then yes you tear your legs up. But just running isn’t enough to cause damage. I ran 80+ miles a week most weeks while I was competing in college and can still get up to 60 or so on occasion if I get on a training kick and mine are completely fine outside of some small popping in my hips thanks to me refusing to wear the right shoes. (I hate stability shoes)
