No. Look at marathon/long-distance runners, they're all skinny. Running is a low-resistance exercise repeated over and over, which really doesn't build much muscle. If you want to bulk up, do few repetitions but as heavy as you can manage.

This is actually not the most effective method. Max weight generally doesn't allow for a ton of hypertrophy, but would still be better than running. You want to do a decent amount of weight, but low enough that you can still go multiple sets of 8-10 reps, allowing for more fiber stimulation. Something like 60% of your max. And Eat protein.
