- Él está por correr.
My meaning was to be:
- You are about to close the door.
- I am about to watch television.
- He is about to go running.
Son correctos?

Yes, they are correct, I made those corrections as to make you aware how you could use the para word. (presuppositories, I think they are called?)

I'm frequently looking things up in the dictionary, grammar book, AND online to make sure that I understand sentence constructions.
