Solution

The correct option is C ran ten miles
Option C is correct as 'ran' is a transitive verb which tells how much he ran. Option A is wrong as the preposition 'at' is unnecessary. Option B is wrong as the preposition 'with' must not be used here. Option D is wrong as the preposition 'to' must not be used in the sentence. Hence C is correct.
