Should I worry about running damaging my knees?

Is it true that pounding the pavement causes arthritis? Does it matter what kind of shoes you wear or what surface you run on?

Just in case this is as far as you read, the answer is no, probably not.

well written in simple terms, addressing many topics related to running

I know that this not related to the knees and it's just from personal experience but, running actually reduced my sciatic pain. Especially when I started my training to the point where I'm almost cured now. Kudos to my physicist who helped me to get back on my feet and teach me what to do to maintain a physical activity despite the pain.
