Celui-là était volontaire : c'est un effet de style avec l'expression "courir une fille" (ou "courir le guilledou" comme on dit de par chez moi, à la campagne. Ça te choque ?

Je connaissais "courir la gueuse" oui.
Mais ce sont des expressions a connotation un peu grivoise, voire aussi péjorative.
Ici je ne pense pas que ton effet de style soit adapté au contexte; et surtout on ne trouve pas d'équivalent dans la phrase anglaise originale. Pourquoi vouloir l'introduire dans ta traduction ?

Par contre comme l'expression est intéressante, rien ne t'empêche de créer une nouvelle phrase qui la contient !

dévoué -> "voué", ou éventuellement "dédié"
"dévouer" s'utilise en principe à la voix pronominale : je me suis dévoué à.
