'Run out of steam' = hết hơi (à là hơi nước, hơi khi đun nóng nhé mấy bạn) -> giảm/mất động lực, năng lượng làm gì.

Ví dụ 
Hennebry has served four terms (nhiệm kì) as a councillor (hội viên hội đồng) in the Hamilton constituency and said that after 12 years, she had "run out of steam".

In the long game against usurpers (người tranh quyền) of the democratic mandate (chỉ thị, ủy trị), we (the public/civil society) lose heart and run out of steam – even while our elected leaders draw fresh breath for renewed bouts (lần lượt) with the constitution.

There is a danger (nguy hiểm) that Liverpool’s players will run out of steam at some point in this season as some of the players have not had a proper break this summer and while I am of the view that players should never get tired, modern footballers are very different and the sports scientists around them will tell them they are tired by looking at data on a computer screen.
