Do you have some evidence to back that claim? I run long distances, and whilst I have been given repeated advice of this nature, I have never seen any actual evidence that this is a problem?

https://acrabstracts.org/abstract/prevalence-of-knee-pain-in... - evidence of reduced risk.

However the thing is the group is self selecting, people who experience joint problems stop running or do not run ultramarathons. (Ex-runners in this study did not in general stop because of joint problems.)

Ultimately, the activity seems safe from standpoint of miles ran.
