Mensagem:  -the freedictionary.com returned "Running Days" as "(Com.) the consecutive days occupied on a voyage under a charter party, including Sundays and not limited to the working days."

Note the above definition that you found.  It is for voyages.  Merriam-Webster gave a similar definiiton. 

Possibly the Brits use it differently than Americans.  I've never claimed to speak British English.  In American business literature, I do not recall ever reading the term. 

I am sticking to my translation.
