Or is it just finding a known length / time bit of my regular route that I can do intervals on?
This. Or go join a club that has a track session. Or public session on track.
I used intervaltimer.com for non running purposes was quite useful. Think they had an app too, not sure if it'd work with your watch.

Got a cheap apple watch on ebay, really good leaving the phone at home. Right now I'm enjoying unstructured 3 to 5km runs around Hackney Marshes, but think I might do a couple of races in the new year.
I've looked at a few training plans, strava for instance, and they're broadly endurance & easy runs with a couple of interval runs too. All seems very familiar having used TrainerRoad for the last five years.
How do people do their intervals? It seems like the apple watch should have some nifty system where it taps you on the wrist to start and stop or something. The display seems pretty small to pay attention to a 1 minute timer & pace at the same time, though I haven't actually tried it. What apps do people use, if any? Or is it just finding a known length / time bit of my regular route that I can do intervals on?
