eventually. i mean in the long term, i think running on grass is probably the safest thing to do, but i think you can still hit the treadmill.

treadmill offers more support then running on pavement its a much smoother surface then running on most paths/trails too grass might be better though

A properly functioning treadmill is the most forgiving surface you can run on. Running everyday on anything can and likely will lead to overuse injuries both acute and chronic so I would break running up with other forms of cardio.

No elevated risk v. outdoor running. You will be more likely to see injuries from twists and stumbles from running outdoors on uneven surfaces and those with unintended obstacles.

There is some give on the treadmill deck.

Don't think that you are truly dunning that distance. The moving belt does not equate to distance on the street.

Too much of one thing isn't good. I would vary the runs instead of doing them everyday. You should go outside and run on difference surfaces. I'm no expert but I know too much of "one thing" isn't good when it involves training.

You can't run everyday. No matter what surface you run on. You need to rest. I ran competitively and my coach told us to work hard 5 days, rest one and run easy 1. The rest day was active rest not lazy rest. So don't go 7 but do 6 at most.
