Answer:

This is not a run-on sentence.

Step-by-step explanation:

A run-on sentence is a set of multiple sentences,which are not joined together properly. (frequently missing the proper punctuation.)

Here's an example:

I like playing video games they're the coolest I like sonic the hedgehog the best.

This is a run-on. Here is the corrected sentence:

I like playing video games, they're the coolest! I like sonic the hedgehog the best.

Hope this helps
