I think she's running because she hears the helicopter in the distance, she is so fed up of being in the village that any form of escape to civilisation would be welcomed by her. She wants to be saved from what she is living in because it is totally different from her pampered life. Notice throughout the novel she keeps asking Bam "when are we going to leave?" this illustrates her dissatisfaction with the village and living conditions that she has been reduced to.
