From what I understand, intense cardio is detrimental to gaining muscle mass. Therefore I would say there's a distinct possibility your legs will shrink from an excessive amount of running, along with the rest of the muscle in your body.

Depends how much you eat as well.

Yes. Lots of endurance running is likely to shrink you thighs (and everywhere else too). Check out any pro marathon runner. You've probably got more muscle in your forearms than they do in their thighs.
