The shoes are one thing, but what is more annoying is a M60 runner in long pants who puts himself in the front row among the young top runners in a mile race and slows down the fast ones after the starting signal.
I think that was the University vice chancellor or something.
It would be great if these 'community mile' events were held in other places and became a rival to Parkrun. One mile is less intimidating for off the couch types and it would also be fairer to gym bros and weekend warriors. Easier to organize and find suitable courses too.
