Keep on taking ur vit D supplements but it should be according to ur blood values. Sun exposure is also helpful but be careful that u don’t get sun burn or heatstroke if it is too hot outside, u will have to be practical. Now ur question about running, u should start it gradually otherwise u may feel pain , tiredness & fatigue as these r the main symptoms of Vit D deficiency. So stay it gradually & then increase it when u get used to it
