Exercise is awesome for the mind and body. Running, well, I loved it for a few years. Absolutely. But,..... The cartilage in my right knee is worn down enough for bone-on-bone contact so my running days are over.
I used to tell everyone that I would run until I couldn’t run any more. That time has come.

Cured all my running problems.
Same here except it was the cartilage in my right big toe going out. Nothing like bone-on-bone, huh? I cannot imagine that pain in my knee!
I had a moderately successful surgery 18 months ago and can at least go for 5-10 mile hikes in the mountains around here (Santa Clara County, CA).
So walk
