need to lose some-fat-around stomach

You can't spot reduce fat. You lose fat in layers throughout your body. To have defined abs you'll need to drop your body fat down to an extremely low level.

Bingo. For guys, abs are all about body fat - if you're not pushing down towards single digit BF%, you can flat out forget the six pack. The belly fat is pretty much the last to go for us guys, so that's just the way it is.
 
Jumping exercises are good to get rid of stomach fat - squat jumps, box jumps, lunge jumps, and broad jumps are some of the best ways to incorporate explosive jumping exercises into your routines. The explosive and powerful nature of jumping exercises works your leg muscles in an entirely different way than most normal slow grinding strength training moves. I've even seen a university study cited once that found squat jumps to elicit the greatest testosterone response of all exercises studied.

"Jumping exercises" are at best just as good as anything else, and at worse, a fairly sizable waste of time.

To be frank, lifting is one of the fastest routes to healthy weight loss, but it all depends on how much you are dedicated. Do you think you could devote yourself to going to the gym two or three times a week? If not, there are certainly other ways to loose weight as well. Running is a good start, and changing up your diet will go a long way to a leaner body.

You should eat several meals a day, instead of one big meal. That will help you lower your body fat.

Also eat more protein and fiber. It's the two most important foods you can eat, not just to get abs. But for health in general.

You run, but what type of running are you doing? If you want to burn fat, don't waste your time with low intensity exercises.
