Around here we have sawdust jogging paths and paved bike paths.
I haven't done much jogging lately, but the sawdust paths are MUCH nicer to jog on. Less knee impact. So, in areas where there are both, the joggers take the sawdust paths. Still walkers may choose paved.

YMMV.
In general that is true.
I am targeting a bikepath Strava KOM. I got it up to 27.7 MPH... and am only
#3 
I'll have to push it over 30 MPH to get KOM
But... that is only one short, straight, wide section of the path. In general, I'm down in the 10-15 MPH range on the paths. And there are several segments (most of them) that I am not interested in "racing" as I don't consider it the least bit safe.

I could care less if they move right, left, or if one moves right and the other moves left.
I slow down for pedestrians and other trail users. Notify them of my presence, then pass in the opening they create.
