Take it on the run

Made popular by the song of the same name as most popularized by the band called REO Speedwagon in the 1980's era, take on the run means to run away, usually from a bad or uncomfortable situation.

It may also now refer to taking a food order to go, aka running with it.

Run the Table

This saying comes from playing pool. It means to sink all of the balls on the table, not giving the competing party a chance to even shoot. In pool if you sink a ball you get to shoot again and keep shooting until you miss. Only if you miss does the other party get to shoot and keep shooting until he misses.

It has moved to other areas meaning to win it all, for instance a team winning all of its games in a season.

They will run the table, winning all of their games this year.
