Run

Some improve their health with a daily run
Turn the key, let the engine run
Pull too hard and your stockings run
Pay less attention then paint will run
Wear cheap mascara and it may run
Power up your PC so your programs run
A winning streak shows you had a good run
There are 645 meanings of the verb “run”
I’ve shown you some—now I have to run!
