Friendly face saying hello, SOBO start around the same time.
Regarding shoes, it's really up to you. That's a double edged "situation dictates" sort of answer, but it's truth.
If you're comfortable in trail runners, use them. Realize as /u/jdlogicman said, you'll probably have snow being kicked around all over them and your feet may very well be wet most of the day. As long as you have a fresh pair of socks and a warm place to put them at night, and you're good with that, go for it.
Also think about your crampons (if bringing), post holing, kicking steps, and god forbid glissading, in trail runners.
I suppose a wise decision (to me) would be to wear something more substantial in the snow zones, switching to trail runners elsewhere.
Personally, I wore these when I thru hiked the AT, and I'm going to wear them on the PCT as well.
But that's me. I like a sturdier boot, and the Gortex works enough that it's worth it for me.
