E:  infinitive as a noun

The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by your question is the fourth choice or letter D. The word "running" is a gerund that is used as a predicate noun.

A gerund is a verb form that ends in -ing. A gerund phrase includes the gerund, plus any modifiers and complements. Gerunds and gerund phrases always function as nouns. They can act as subjects, direct objects, indirect objects, predicate nominatives, or objects of a preposition in a sentence.
