Prefixes! Of course! Thanks for catching that.
I think we are having a little dictionary conflict here. The "501 Russian Verbs" book says that побегать/побежать is perfective. Maybe someone...
You can add like tons of endings to motion verbs. It's just that in the dictionary, perfective forms are listed with the prefix по-. по also means "to set off".
они побежали домой. - They ran...
Aren't the perfective forms пoбегать/побежать?
