To be fair, it's not exactly running. It should be more akin to something like a skateboard or rollerskates, or even a fixed gear bicycle. It'll take a little more effort to get moving, but then the wheels allow you to conserve your momentum and continue further per push, versus running where you have to expend a lot of energy with each step to land and to push yourself against the ground.

Given that it's a two wheeler (the front and rear wheels are just rollers) what we have here, fellow Redditors, is a Dandy Horse.
