Definition of Runaround
1 : deceptive or delaying action especially in response to a request
e.g. "tired of getting the runaround"
First Known Use of Runaround: 1915
Another says 1870-5
Around doesn't mean that, and has been 'around' <ahem!> quite a bit longer than that --by five centuries! Functionally "runaround" is a noun, while "around" is an adverb, adjective, or a preposition.
