Paul August Runge (September 10, 1907 – April 27, 1972) was a Canadian professional ice hockey player who played 142 games in the National Hockey League between 1930 and 1938. Born in Edmonton, Alberta, he played for the Boston Bruins (1930–32, 1936), Montreal Maroons (1933–34, 1936–38), and Montreal Canadiens (1934–36, 1936). The rest of his career, which lasted from 1928 to 1942, was spent in various minor leagues.

Runge played parts of four NHL seasons without recording a goal. His first goal came as a member of the Boston Bruins in his team's 6-3 victory over the Montreal Maroons on December 28, 1935. The game was played at the Montreal Forum. Runge would score eight times for Boston in the 1935-36 season. He would eventually tally 18 NHL goals and 22 assists for 40 career points.
