Until is used for time and unless is used for conditions.

I will go running unless it rains. (if it does not rain, I run. If it does rain, I do not run).

I will run until it rains. (my running is definitely taking place, but it will stop when the rain comes).

I think this website is a pretty good guide: https://www.diffen.com/difference/Unless_vs_Until

DISCLAIMER: I actually hate running :D
