Welcome to the forum and well done on your decision.

This is most definitely not a sprint!

Enjoy your journey.

Try not to think too far ahead - just focus on the individual sessions - they'll soon build up!

It’s more a marathon than a sprint , just follow the plan as it’s laid out for you and you will love it

Slow and steady and you will get there the sprinting comes on week 9 !
