Running, getting out of the house is far from an issue, I'm no couch potato myself.
Some of you pointed out to get an Akita, I have been considering that for years, together with a Husky, aswell. Still undecided on that.

Akitas still need activity, but they're usually content with lounging for most of the day. They might get depressed if cooped up all the time. They're also a lot larger than Huskies (about 50-100% larger) and might challenge your dominance, if that's an issue.
I prefer Akitas because of how loyal they are. They still might run off, mainly due to prey drive, but not as often as a Husky. My dog has darted out of the door a few times to chase deer. Silly animal.
