Call Unwrap on the task returned from Task.Factory.StartNew this will return the inner task, which has the correct status.

var cts = new CancellationTokenSource();
Task t = Task.Factory.StartNew(
async () => {
while (true)
{
    cts.Token.ThrowIfCancellationRequested();
    try
    {
        "Running...".Dump();
        await Task.Delay(500, cts.Token);
    }
    catch (TaskCanceledException ex) { }
} }, cts.Token, TaskCreationOptions.LongRunning, TaskScheduler.Default).Unwrap();
