Too many runners, not enough leaves

I have an Amydrium medium silver, and she had some good growth for a while, even the start of fenestrations. But now, all I'm getting are these unsightly runners. Is there something I can do to encourage foliage growth? I feed and keep her watered as needed. She sits near an east-facing window in my bathroom. #amydriummediumsilver #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantaddict

Trim the runners! This should prompt the plant to grow more leaves instead.
@wolfqueen 100% cut the runners! If it's putting energy into making runners then that energy isn't going to leaves and we don't want that ๐Ÿ™…๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ
@GnarlyJacaranda and @PleaseLeaf, I will cut them. Makes perfect sense. Thank you both! ๐Ÿ˜Š
This is exactly my situation right now, thanks for asking the question!
