You will benefit your heart muscle, but you will not gain skeletal muscle. Just look at people like marathon runners who run a lot: instead of looking muscular, they look anaemic. If you want to gain muscle mass, do strength/weight training. For more information about how to build muscle, see the page link, further down this page, listed under Related Questions.
