            WorkflowRuntime workflowRuntime = Application["WorkflowRuntime"] as WorkflowRuntime;
            WorkflowInstance instance =workflowRuntime.CreateWorkflow(typeof(Activity1),dicobjParams);
            //workflowRuntime.CreateWorkflow(typeof(Activity1), dicobjParams).Start();
            workflowRuntime.WorkflowCompleted += new EventHandler<WorkflowCompletedEventArgs>(workflowRuntime_WorkflowCompleted);
            instance.Start();

if you are using wwf 4.0 you cannot use WorkflowRuntime and instead of that you must use WorkflowApplication like :

Dictionary<string, object> dicobjParams = new Dictionary<string, object>();
Activity workflow1 = new MyApp.Activity1();
WorkflowApplication app = new WorkflowApplication(workflow1, dicobjParams );
app.Run();

i recommend to you to read : https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee342461.aspx
