Is the following sentence a run-on sentence i thought about what he'd said soon I realized he was right?

"I thought about what he'd said soon I realized he was right." Is a run-on sentence. The problem starts where it says "said". This is the proper way of saying it:"I thought about what he'd said, and soon I realized he was right."Or, another correct way:"I thought about what he'd said. Soon I realized he was right."It is because it is two subjects and two predicates.Subject1: IPredicate1: thoughtSubject2: IPredicate2: realizedYou can make them into two complete sentences or separate them with a comma and add a conjunction. The conjunction to the proper way is "and". I hope this helped!
