I believe the answer is:

joggers

'runners' is the definition.
(jogger is a kind of runner)

'they remind us' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'remind' could be 'jog' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'jog' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'gers' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'of' is the link.
