Hello,
Context: There are people at a village party outside in the street. It starts to rain and someone brings many umbrellas.
Text: ”Everyone ran around under the umbrellas and hurried to move the tables and chairs and food inside the tents”.
run around = (literally) run haphazardly or in different directions in an area
Attempt: Fiecare se repezea sub umbrele și se grăbea să mute mesele și scaunele și mâncarea (la adăpost) sub corturi (- the tents were, in fact, tent cloth roofs, it was summer).
Do you have a better option? A se repezi doesn't have that feeling of running adrift, confused, in different directions...
