What's the name of the clothes that runners wear?

The clothes worn by runners belong to one kind of sportswear, which is called track and field sportswear.

Track and field clothes: Athletes mainly wear vests and shorts. Generally, the vest is required to fit the body, and the shorts are easy to stride. Sometimes, in order not to affect the long-span movement of athletes' legs, they will be slit on both sides of the trouser legs or release a certain degree of looseness. Vest shorts are mostly knitted fabrics, but also silk.
