I used to do it. Friend of mine found out from one of our conversations and she yelled at me so I don't anymore. Apparently it's "not safe". I think running at night is wonderful but it is frowned upon.

I run at night all the time and never had an issue so far. Just make sure to plan your route so you stay on main roads with light and you won't have to worry. Biggest concern is actually getting hit by a drunk driver or someone who can't see you so limit road crossings and always pay attention.

Whether I'm going slowly insane this time again or not. But, that is the reason I don't jog past the afternoon. Gets my head weird.

If the place you go out running is a safe area, then it's okay. Otherwise be careful.
I usually go running at 5am.

Honestly this is my favorite time to run, but i refrain from doing so often because most people if they see you running around there house any time after dark probably assumed you just broke into someones house, shed, etc and are running away and will probably call the cops. I may just be paranoid but i think this is a valid thought. But this may only be because where i live the road & houses are very close, their is no side walks. Your basically running at the edge of peoples lawns, driveways, etc. So much closer than if you live in a town/city where your on the side walk where it would feel much less sketchy imo.

That's dangerous unless you have a lot of people nearby out at 5 AM, usually elderly people are out at 5 AM and some blue collar workers about to go to work.

I go out past 10pm on jogs 2-3 times a week. Like someone else said, the biggest worry is people driving drunk or recklessly (some people like to show off their speedy sports cars). The only people I've seen are doing the same thing I am. In my area, we have lots of deer that just roam around yards at night. They are pretty chill.

But that's because I live in a nice part of town.

High-speed runs at midnight. You can do those.

Never done it. I live in a good neighborhood and city. Usually night time is associated with bad things like animals and ppl wit bed intentions. So long as you know the place where you are running I see no harm. I would avoid roads though especially ones where speed limit is 35 or higher as you might get run over.

In Costa Rica there is a tradition that on independence day all participating grade 11 (senior year) students run throughout the night in a torch relay event. I almost had the chance to participate, but I was told to meet at 12 am but at an assembly they changed it to 11:30 pm and didn't bother to translate from Spanish to English so I got to the meeting point too late.

Almost every day I bike home from work at 9 pm in the pitch black through a forest. There are bears and cougars that live in that forest, but they don't usually attack humans.

Running is the worst exercise, it is better to walk; and for the time, it is best between 1am and 4am because there is less people and you can relax and think better. It depends on how afraid you are of dark and the (depending of the neighbourhood) possibility of encounter a criminal.

Go running with a big knife in your bag. People that try and start shit won't after you tell them that someone is going to need a bag to collect 'em. Unless you're in America, I wouldn't go out, some white neckbeard might shoot you up.

You should be sleeping at that time. Wake up early if you have no time in the day. Some guys go to the gym at 6am.

I used to all the time during the summer back in high school, would go out for a nice 8 miler on the dirt roads. Was really nice because of how cool it was and no traffic. Only downside was I always came back with a bunch of dead bugs stuck to me that drowned in my sweat.

I'm not on that sleep schedule anymore though and don't plan to ever again, I'm an early morning guy now.

I used to do it, to fall asleep better. Sadly it didn't help much I tended to wider awake than before. The teens drinking in the forest/fields give you funny looks. It's also rather awkward when the police drives past you.

I actually knew a mom that forced her child to run laps around couple of blocks at night, to power him out due to being hyperactive. He still does it today, and sleeps like a stone afterwards, I guess it became a sleeping ritual. :'D

Here it is a pretty safe area so it's fine. And there's always people running nearby at the same hour.

It has happened to me and I am not afraid. You don't have to let the fear control your life

It is a bad exercise but I don't remember the proper explanation; it has something to do with articulations or something like that. Also sometimes you get headache or similar after running. Stretching and some exercises like yoga or kung fu training is far more efficient. I have been practicing kung fu and making exersice since young so that is why I claim running is not the best option
