since the Earth turns from East to West (or West to East) timezones running East to West would not show how far the sun has gone. Think about it: how could it possibly be the very same time at a given moment all along the equator? The equator runs through the entire sunlit and night time parts of the earth.

Do time zones run vertically or horizontally?

Time zones run vertically, extending from the North Pole to the South Pole. They are generally defined by lines of longitude, with each time zone typically covering 15 degrees of longitude to account for the Earth's rotation. This vertical alignment means that as you move east or west across the globe, you change time zones.
