Best to run in morning or night?

Question

is it better to run in the morning or at night?

Answer 1

It's more a matter of personal opinion. I like the morning the only bad thing about night is you could get hit by cars.

Answer 2

both are good, but in the morning your body is fresh and revived.

Answer 3

There isn't just one perfect time to run.

I like the evening because it's cool and I have to be up early to work (and am not a morning person). But some people are ready to go in the morning, and that's cool too.

ps--just a note on night running, if you go running too late, then it can interfere with your sleep. b/c you're all energized.

Answer 4

Morning.. Right after breakfast because the food with jumpstart you're metabolism and make you lose more weight than you would after a whole day of eating..  If you run on an empty stomach though you won't lose as much weight because you're body will think you're starving it and go into starvation mode.. It will hold on to the fat as long as it can.. And it's not as dangerous as running at night :)

Answer 5

morning because a lot more bad things happen to people in night then morning

Answer 6

I like morning because I can get it out of the way and feel energized the rest of the day.  But if you feel tired the rest of the day, maybe evening works better for you.  Also, if you run outside, it's less safe to run at night.

Answer 8

Hello!  This question is brought up by runners constantly, and to tell you the truth, it is mostly opinion.  Running in the morning is great, I'll tell you that.  I run everyday in the morning, and run at night here or there.  Running in the morning is great because the it is usually not too hot out, and is just overall good running weather for most people.  And you feel really good because you have the whole day ahead of you, you already ran and did your workout before most people are awake!  And you have the whole day ahead of you!  Nothing to lose!

depends on where you live and the temps, because you dont want to be getting to hot, when the temp. out side is boiling. but i'd run at night because you are not having to worry as much as to traffic, other people .....

Answer 17

In the morning.

Its cooler in the morning.

If you run before breakfast, you burn both fat and carbs.  Evening you burn carbs only.

If you run in the evening, you will have trouble sleeping unless you wait about three hours.

Answer 18

thats an opinion but most of my friends will run in the morning. i,however, like to run at night. running at sunset is nice and relaxing.

Answer 19

hmmm idk id say night!??

Answer 20

In the morning usually, it will help keep your energy up during the day. If you do it at night and are ready for bed soon after, you could have trouble sleeping. But, if that isn't a concern either way, it wouldn't really matter. Nights would also be cooler during summer time.
