Genetics determines a lot of this. You have some choices:
1. Pilates and dance to elongate the leg.
2. Rowing, works upper body and is aerobic
3. Yoga
4. You may just have big legs--a lot of our physical type is predetermined (ectomorphs are slender and long, endomorphs have thicker bodies--there is only so much you can do. If you aren't the Kate Moss type, then be a face model or seek a different career.)

I recommend lower intensity exercise such as brisk walking. If you are running up hills and really getting a good work out you are just going to keep building muscle. I like to hike and cycle a lot but still have what I would call thin legs. I never do any squats and very little running.

If you use weights you may want to lower the LBS. a bit. If you are doing a lot of running try some other form of cardio that limits your leg use.

Do more reps when lifting and less weight...
