When Forrest was telling his story, he said there was no particular reason why he ran, he just did. He remembered what his mother had said, "…you've go to put the past behind you before you can move on, and I think that's what my running was all about." After running for more than three years, he just wanted to go home.
The movie does not tell us definitively how many times Forrest crossed America. When he set out from his home in Alabama, he headed west - the first coast he reached was the west coast (as evidenced by his arrival at the Santa Monica pier.) He was then shown arriving at what is presumed to be the east coast. From there, the journey is shown in a musical montage. At one point, a TV news anchor introduces a story saying that "for more than two years now, a man named Forrest Gump…has been running across America." The reporter covering the story goes on to say, "for the fourth time on his journey across America, Forrest Gump…is about to cross the Mississippi Riveragain today." Forrest kept on running after that crossing, eventually stopping in the desert. At that point he stated, "I had run for three years, two months, fourteen days and sixteen hours."
He Ran because he didnt know how to cope with losing Jenny. So he just ran because she told him to Just Run, Away in Vietnam if he was ever in trouble.
In the movie he said that he was tired and just stopped running.
In the movie when he was asked by a reporter why he was running he said, "Ah just felt like runnin."
//The actual reason Gump ran was he was devastated that Jenny had left him again.//

Where did Forest Gump's run begin?
A direct quote from "Forrest Gump" describes Forrest's run, "That day, for no particular reason, I decided to go for a little run. So I ran to the end of the road, and when I got there, I thought maybe I'd run to the end of town. And when I got there, I thought maybe I'd just run across Greenbow County. Now, I figured since I'd run this far, maybe I'd just run across the great state of Alabama. And that's what I did. I ran clear across Alabama. No particular reason. I just kept on going. I ran clear to the ocean and when I got there, I figured since I'd gone this far, might as well turn around, just keep on going. And when I got to another ocean, I figured since I'd gone this far I might as well just turn back and keep right on going.
