Yes, most agree that jump rope is great. But you shouldn't stop running without consulting a running doctor, not the normal HMO schmoe. You should never be running on concrete to begin with, that is a running no-no. Your worst choice should be asphalt and then tracks, dirt trails, sand, etc. Plus, evaluate your choice of footwear and inserts.
Before warming up for muay thai, I skip about 5 3-min rounds alternating techniques. At the end of the workout, I will skip 2 cool down rounds. I go off the boxing timer. A lot of Thai fighters will skip rope for only 1 round, but the round is 45 min long.
