Forget about the Spanish, which cluttered up the question in my last.

What is the difference between the "to" in the sentence *I am going to
the store,* and the "to" in the sentence *I am going to run.*

Is the "to" in the second sentence a preposition, or part of the
infinitive? If a "separate" preposition, does that mean that the "run"
has a "hidden" "to"?

Is there such a thing as an elided infinitive?
