past progressive

Considering estar can be used in the preterite and imperfect with the present participle ( gerund ), are they used in different ways? Or do they mean the same thing? For example, do:

"Estuve corriendo" and "estaba corriendo" mean the same thing? I was running. Is one used more than the other for any reason?

Why is it “juego al tenis”? Is it the Spanish direct translation of “I play at the tennis”"?

When there is no doubt, why the subjunctive?No dudo en absoluto que nosotros nos ________ siempre.I have absolutely no doubt that we will love each other for ever.HINT: Conjugate "querer" in El Presente Subjuntivo."No dudo que" would express certainty, so why the subjunctive here?
