An intransitive verb does not require a direct object to complete its meaning. In the sentence "He will soon run a marathon," the verb "run" here does not transfer action to a direct object; "a marathon" is the activity being performed, not a recipient of the action. Transitive verbs need a direct object to receive the action, which is not the case here.
