I think the following is also a run on sentence and therefore wrong. Am I right?

Because, learning has no age, one can start learning, playing piano at the age of five and also at the age of fifty, the only thing required is the zeal and the willingness to learn something new.

It isn't a run-on sentence this is a run-on sentence. You just tend to use too many unnecessary commas.

What you have is a comma splice. Surprisingly, the website seems to suggest that a comma splice is a type of run-on sentence, which is false, as far as I'm concerned. A run-on occurs when two or more independent clauses are joined together without punctuation or a conjunction.
