I assume there is terminal emulator widget in your geany (which is suggested by geany package). Click on it (In lower-left corner) and first navigate to folder in which is your source file:

cd Path/To/Source

To compile file YourSourceFile.c type:

gcc YourSourceFile.c -o ProgramName

To run the program type:

./ProgramName
