Could it be a possible typo?
I am running is not to + V + ing.
So what could the writer have possibly meant?

In English, the form V + -ing is called a gerund if it serves as a noun. For example, the gerund form of "run" is "running". (I like cats, I like dogs, I like running). However, not all V + ing forms are gerunds:
- In "I am running because I'm late.", "running" is a verb where you use to + V + -ing.
