run-down

In poor repair

Run-down describes something in poor condition from neglect or age: a run-down apartment building, a run-down neighborhood.

A person who is run-down is exhausted or in weakened health: She's been feeling run-down lately.

A run-down is also a summary or brief account: Give me a run-down of what happened.

In baseball, a rundown is a play where fielders chase a baserunner caught between bases.
