You will not want to, or be able to, get rid of those. 

/run is itself a tmpfs and the /run/user/$uid are created as needed by systemd, I think. 
This stores temporary associated with a user's running processes that only the user should
have access to.  Placing that info in /tmp or another area may present a security issue. 
/run/user/$uid is restricted to that particular UID.
