The evidence is actually conflicting whether running damages knees, especially if you are not overweight or don't have any existing knee issues. Some evidence even suggests that running may improve joint health. So I wouldn't just assume that running will fuck up your knees.
It's best to mix up your activities, or just do what you enjoy. Some of the benefits of running is that you can do it pretty much anywhere/anytime, that it's easy to track your progress, it's an important component of many sports so if you get good at it you automatically become better at those sports, and it lets you push your body to the limits.
