Worn down knee cartilage

Any advice for a 60 year old runner who has worn down his knee

cartilage? His concern over surgery is the risk of losing what he

can now do, which is long biking and hiking without pain.

MRI shows meniscus still intact, but repeated attempts to run a bit

every few months or so, result in pain for up to a week.

He's ok with his new lifestyle, even lifting more in the gym, but

really misses running. He also thinks he'd be laughed out of a

surgeons office due to his age. He is extremely fit.
