Run the second edition (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sprint

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'run' is the definition.
(I know that sprint is a more specific form of the action run)

'second edition' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'second' could be 's' (common abbreviation) and 's' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'print' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'the' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for sprint that I've seen before include "Run quickly" , "To make fast progress" , "Short race at full speed" , "quick run" , "Quick dash" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and The Globe and Mail.
