+A DAG run will have a start date when it starts, and end date when it ends.
+This period describes the time when the DAG actually 'ran.' Aside from the DAG
+run's start and end date, there is another date called *logical date*
+(formally known as execution date), which describes the intended time a
+DAG run is scheduled or triggered. The reason why this is called
+*logical* is because of the abstract nature of it having multiple meanings,
+depending on the context of the DAG run itself.
+
+For example, if a DAG run is manually triggered by the user, its logical date would be the
+date and time of which the DAG run was triggered, and the value should be equal
+to DAG run's start date. However, when the DAG is being automatically scheduled, with certain
+schedule interval put in place, the logical date is going to indicate the time
+at which it marks the start of the data interval, where the DAG run's start
+date would then be the logical date + scheduled interval.
