Working so hard that you cause yourself injury is always bad. That being said, pushing as hard as you can without injuring yourself will be the most effective way to build muscle. If you are unsure about how much weight you can lift or how many reps you can do, it's a good strategy to start at a weight you know you can do at least 10 times comfortably, and work your way up. If you feel that it is too easy, you can simply step up to the next level. Going too heavy too soon is the best way to injureyourself.

If you are skinny and want to gain muscle mass should you run and lift weights or just lift weights?

In order to gain muscle mass, you should do more weight lifting and less cardio. However, don't give up cardio altogether. Instead, cut your treadmill (or whatever) time down to 10 - 15 minutes, and do it prior to lifting. This way, your heart gets its workout. You could also get some whey protein and take it twice a day. I used it and was very happy with the results. Good luck and work hard!
