All verbs are action verbs. That is what defines a verb - it is a 'doing' word, or 'action' word.

An action verb expresses action. It tells what a person or a thing does. To find out whether a word is an action verb, ask yourself whether that word expresses something you can do.

An action verb basically tells what something is doing. (Johnny ran in a marathon). The action verb is ran (simple past tense I believe).
Verbs tell what something is doing or tells what state something is in.
