[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Walking is so much better for your joints. I know so many former long distance runners who did serious damage to their knees and hips, to the point where they needed replacements in their 40’s and 50’s.[/quote]

Contrary to popular belief, running is not necessarily worse for your joints than walking. In fact, it’s been found that running regularly may even help prevent joint problems later on. In a study published in 2017 in the journal Arthritis Care & Research, almost 59% of non-runners had osteoarthritis in their knees compared to 53% of runners.[/quote]

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]
