Split the sentence into two (or more) separate sentences. End each sentence with a full stop (a "period", in American English), and start each sentence with a capital letter.
Alternatively, if the two component sentences are related, such that the second sentence is dependent on the first sentence in some way, they can be joined in a valid way using a semi-colon (";") or a colon (":"). In this case, the second part does not begin with a capital letter.
For example, this is a run-on sentence:
Run-on sentences are bad English, people who write them should be ashamed of themselves.
This is really two sentences strung together. You could write them as such, with a full stop and a capital letter:
Run-on sentences are bad English. People who write them should be ashamed of themselves.
Alternatively, since the second sentence is really just a follow-up to the first, it makes sense to link them with a semi-colon:
Run-on sentences are bad English; people who write them should be ashamed of themselves.
