I’m gonna take a stab at this and say
SEAHORSE
My prefix reflects the sun.
The sea reflects sun light
My suffix was born to run.
This could be taken two ways:
1. Horses have evolved to be able to run quickly after birth (within 24 hours according to google)
2. Race horses are selectively bred to be as quick as possible, quite literally born to run
My infix is a dilemma at hand.
’Or’ indicates a choice, or a dilemma
My whole cannot live on land.
Seahorses are fish and hence are unable to live on land

$\begingroup$ My take on the dilemma part was 'H OR S' is a choice (or a dilemma). maybe H is Hours and S is Seconds (Hands of a clock), and that's why it's "at hand" $\endgroup$ Commented Aug 5, 2021 at 12:46
