Corriendo is your present participle/gerund which basically means it's happening right now. It gets combined with estar in the present tense to state that something is happening at the moment... it's in progress.
Corren = they run (but can also mean they're running or that they're going to be running if a specific time is included. i.e. mañana corren = tomorrow they (will) run)
Están corriendo = they are running (at this moment, they are running)
I'm pretty sure anyway ... could just be conjugation like that rascal rac1 said :p
