Well, that's a bit strange because I didn't exactly come away with the same message that you did from Dr. Bruce Lipton. Of course things like being stress free, happy and well nurtured are important. But it's not by far the cure all for everything. So I think it's a little misleading to make it sound that way.
I don't believe he said that genes can be reversed. If I'm not mistaken, he said that genes for disease need to be turned on by something in the persons lifestyle/environment in order to cause disease. He actually downplayed the role of genes by saying that genes don't do very much other than carry a blueprint for the duplication of cells
As far as running: Running can be stressful for those people who tend to think that if something is good then more is better. So they increase their speed and duration to the point of stimulating harmful hormones like cortisol. They, in effect, bring on the very thing they were trying to avoid: A heart attack. (Not long ago I read that running is bad for the heart muscle but I don't remember the details. If I can remember where I read it, I'll tell more about it later.)
