I think you are missing some important combinations, like the all-too-common "No Shirt, Short Shorts" runner, often that serious slow-twitch triathlete who can dust you in any distance longer than a mile. Then, there's my favorite, that most ridiculous of unicorns, the "No Shirt, Short Shorts, All The Gear" runner, covered with so much tech -- chest straps, smart glasses, foot pods, phone holsters, sodium patches, and other gadgets -- that perhaps clothing itself may be optional.

I set a 5k PR at a race where my watch measured the route as 3.06 miles. So, according to Garmin and Strava it isn't my PR even though I had smashed my old time by enough to still be well into PR territory with an extra 0.04 miles. It turned me into a bit of a distance denier. So, if you ever see me keep running full speed passed the finish line, it is because I want to make sure my watch believes me the next time I set a PR.
