How do I run a C++ program in Xcode 4?

I want to write a C++ program in Xcode on my Mac. I wrote this basic one to test it. When I build, I get a "Build Successful" message.

However, I cannot run it! If I hit Command+R nothing happens. When I go to Project->Run the Run option is disabled.

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{

    cout << "helo" << endl;

}
