If you're just talkiing about the sport of running, then no, you can't use the expression in this sentence. 'leg it' is used when someone suddenly has to get somewhere quickly and has no choice but to run - as in Laurence's example above, or you could say that the thief stole some money and then 'legged it' ie ran away. By the way, it's a very colloquial phrase, only used in informal spoken situations.
