This is probely a dumb newbie question but, will running the batteries out on an LED flashlight destroy it?

The light? No.
Unless you are using alkalines that might leak from being run to the bitter end. Which doesn't happen as much as it used to.

Running down a li-ion will perhaps destroy the battery, but I never heard that a flashlight can be hurt from depleting a battery...
