Running prevents premature death by 27 % confirms new meta-analysis: 

If you have not still started to run, the recently published meta-analysis of 14 earlier pieces of research will make you run from tomorrow. The finding published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine confirms running reduces premature death by 27 %. Apart from a good mood, happiness, and health benefits, this new finding will sure make you run from tomorrow.

Myth on overrunning is no more with the new meta-analysis on running:

Many who do not run even for a day, worry about the ill-effects of running more than 250 minutes a week. The published meta-analysis confirms that even with a sample size of 232,149 participants from 14 earlier studies, there was little data for those running above 250 minutes a week. It also tracked the health of those participants from the past 5.5 - 35 years. Hence the myth of its ill effects is gone with this published study. Also, the prescribed dose of running like it is medicine by many previous studies has been broke by it.
