08        if value>0 then
09            playrun()

You want to create and use LoadAnimation outside of these events so both event functions has the animation.

Also you want to disconnect the running event so that you don't create it over and over again.

01local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
02 
03local IdleAnim = script:WaitForChild("Idle")
04local RunAnim = script:WaitForChild("Run")
05 
06local run = plr.Character.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(RunAnim)
07local idle = plr.Character.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(IdleAnim)
08 
09local runE
10 
11script.Parent.Equipped:Connect(function()
12    runE=plr.Character.Humanoid.Running:Connect(function(value)
13        if value>0 then
14            playrun()
15        else
16            playidle()
17        end
18    end)
19end)
20 
21 
22script.Parent.Unequipped:Connect(function()
23    run:Stop()
24    idle:Stop()
25    if runE then
26        runE:Disconnect()
27        runE=nil
28    end
29end)
30 
31 
32function playidle()
33    run:Stop()
34    idle:Play()
35end
36 
37function playrun()
38    idle:Stop()
39    run:Play()
40end

I can't tell you if it's the issue but i think that you need to use :Disconnect()
