Yes, sorry. It will be a segment run, if needed (I never qualify on points, I am too cheap, and don't travel enough to get the miles in low fares classes). I just had never heard the term "segment run", so wasn't sure if people would call it that, or just always use "mileage run".
I booked my travel in the awards sale, it was too good to pass up.
Thanks, all.
