Why isn't my sprint key working?
On the PC with version 1.8.4, I go to settings and change my sprint to f.
But when I hit f, nothing happens. I've tried other letters but nothing works.

You are probably low on hunger. Eat then try double tapping the W key and holding it after.

How do you fix sprints in Minecraft?
Make sure you haven't set your walk forwards key and your sprint key to other functions. You can check that in Minecraft control settings. If none of them are bound to any other function, you should be able to run.What key should I use for sprint?
Double tap the forward key. Press and hold after double-tapping to keep sprinting forward. You will move 30% faster than usual, and your field of view will become slightly wider.Why Isn't Lightweight Bike Tech Cool Anymore? | GCN Tech Show Ep. 239

You need to tap or hold the sprint button while holding a direction, releasing all direction keys will stop even if you continue to hold the sprint key. Simply pressing or holding the sprint button on its own will have no effect on your game.
A common layout is to use the Shift or Ctrl key as sprint (depending on your crouch key), so you can hold it while using the WASD keys to move.
If this is what you're doing, make sure you're saving your settings after modifying them. It's possible you're making changes and then discarding them accidentally.
