Think of a pendulus. Does it go faster when it's approaching its lower point than when going away from it? No.
You can get answers for the velocities of the mass by using conservation of energy to determine the speed at any given point.
Just consider the 3 types of energy involved: gravity potential, kinetic and spring potential.
