Yeah, never mind; it was early. I didn't understand the original post and was so confused about why it was written, I didn't fully read these examples. From them, I now understand that people are using "run" as simple past. It isn't clear from the original post that was basis

All I see is that it's nearly the same with the US more often being less than 8 minutes than Germany
