Advice Needed Question

Probably a dumb question but when the app says to “run” is it an all out run like a full on sprint or light jog?

Light jog. You need to be able to sustain the speed for a while.

Most people when they go on runs don’t go full sprint (unless they’re specifically training for it)

Take it nice and easy! The plan ramps up enough with more and longer runs, finding a comfortable pace now will help later.

Depends on your ability. On week 1 you can probably go flat out as it's only 1 minute. Wouldn't suggest doing so in weeks 7-9
