He is running trying to get to the bus station

In the sentence "He is running trying to get to the bus station" is the grammar correct?

Thanks for your time!

I'd probably put a comma after "running", but your sentence is otherwise fine. (adding "in/on time at the end also makes more sense to me)

Hi

Yeh I'd put a comma after the running too. I think though if I wrote the sentence I'd probably go with 'trying to' so, "He is running to try to get to the bus station". Your sentence is correct though.
