As someone who casually speedruns a couple Metroidvanias, the allure is in mastery. For me at least, it's the mastery and intimate knowledge of a game I love. Imo, there's no point to speedrunning unless it's a game you love and are going to replay anyways as it requires the ability to essentially play through the game in your sleep.
