When I first started playing TS4 it was having a no running ever bug, and I thought it was because of that. Since then, I found a mod on Mod The Sims that replaces it with the Jog animation, and it has worked brilliantly.
It might be true for those at the very end of the red zone to slow down irl, but most people do run to the toilet when they got to go. This might have been cute the first few times, like I said I thought it was a glitch, so I wasn't laughing over it. I take that back, my family did create a "Walk like the Sims," Joke inspired by this, so there's that. It's incredibly not in EA's favor, though. Not that type of joke. :D
