These runners are called stolons and are part of St. Augustine grass. They are growing to help thicken the lawn and fill in bare spots. Do NOT pull them out but you can cut them back if they are growing into your flower beds. I tuck the ones growing on top of the lawn, back down into the grass. This type of grass looks great (lush, thick and green all year) but it's difficult walking on this spongy type of grass!
