Answer 1

Jogging is a form of trotting or running at a slow or leisurely pace. The main intention is to increase fitness without stress, though people may jog short distances if they are in a hurry, but don't wish to exert themselves.
Exercise
Jogging is a "high-impact" exercise that places strain on the body, notably the joints of the knee. This is actually one of the basic reasons for doing the exercise, as the impact drives growth processes in the areas of the body stressed by that impact. Some people drop jogging in order to take up "lower-impact" exercises such as stair climbing, swimming or cycling.

Jogging is often used by serious runners as a means of active recovery during interval training. The runner who may just have completed a fast 400 metre repetition at a sub-5-minute mile pace, may drop to an 8-minute mile pace for a recovery lap. The jog might be carried out in much poorer, looser form whose purpose is to "shake out" the body and maintain circulation to eliminate, from the muscles, metabolic waste products produced during the bout of hard work.
Jogging as a sport
Because jogging isn't a well-defined term and doesn't aim at achieving any specifically identifiable goal, jogging cannot be classified as a competitive sport. There isn't any clear set of rules by which competitors could be disqualified for cheating by transitioning from jogging to running, other than the general observation that they are running with too good a form, and trying to win by moving too quickly
