An amateur is someone who doesn't get paid, so I'm confused about the distinction you are trying to make here.
An amateur can indeed get paid, and amateur hour is different to the literal term of an amateur.
Stay confused though, life will be simpler for you this way.

you wear shorts over your tights.

1. You're on Strava more for social reasons than to track your mileage.
If I don't even know what Strava is, does that mean I'm NOT a hobby jogger? Or doesn't the reverse work in certainties like that?
If you don't wear split shorts or half tights
or every single run is at the same pace. Your marathon pace is your 5k pace is your easy pace is your half pace, etc.
