Run

In Dragon's Dogma running is the fastest mode of travel available to characters.

Overview
As forward motion increases, human characters will progressively walk, jog, and then lightly run. A special action (usually pressing the movement analog stick) switches to running mode, during which stamina is rapidly used and the character takes on a sprinting posture, allowing dashing from place to place.

Running speed and stamina usage is affected negatively by increase encumbrance.
