According to my understanding the "take-off run" caters for the MLG "skimming" over the lights.
The take-off run on a dry runway is
the greater of –
(i) The horizontal distance along
the take-off path from the start of the takeoff
to a point equidistant between the point
at which VLOF is reached and the point at
which the aeroplane is 11 m (35 ft) above
the take-off surface, as determined under CS
25.111 for a dry runway; or
(ii) 115% of the horizontal distance
along the take-off path, with all engines
operating, from the start of the take-off to a
point equidistant between the point at which
VLOF is reached and the point at which the
aeroplane is 11 m (35 ft) above the take-off
surface, determined by a procedure
consistent with CS25.111.
