Why is my toilet constantly running?

Perhaps the most common reason for a running toilet is an old flapper that needs to be replaced.

Shut off the water supply to the toilet, and then flush the toilet to drain the water.

Why does my toilet sound like water is running?

Running noises occur when water leaks out of the tank and into the bowl, and then the tank re-fills with water. The valve in the tank allows water to escape into the bowl. The flapper chain in the tank is too tight and prevents the valve from shutting all the way.
