Answer #5

No running is never bad, But two miles might not be suitable for everyone.

If you can’t run properly I mean If you have difficulties than it might harm you in the long term.

You can use a mix of stair climbing with running, Stair climbing is also a great way to lose weight and stay fit.

Answer #6

That depends on your weight, actually. If you are thin, you can run as much as you want to. If you are significantly overweight, you will ruin your joints. The knees will hurt, the ankles too. You might also cause permanent damage.

So if you are rather heavy, you should do other sports. Bicycling, swimming or fast walking are suitable for overweight folks.
