Question

What is the best time to jog at night?

Answer 1

It's a personal choice based on living arrangements - work hours, location of running course, access to running partner, etc, etc.

I live in rural Australia and wouldn't run after 9 pm because of the lack of street lights and deserted roads.  However, when I lived in the city it was not unusual to go for a run at midnight.

However, I know my sister cannot run at night as she gets a little claustrophobic.  She loves to run about 5am.

Try various times and see what suits you.  However, I would suggest safety first -  get a training partner or let someone know when you are going for a run, course and approximate time home.

Answer 2

12am

Answer 3

I live in NYC and I found that the best time would be at around 7-8 PM. Or whenever it looks more like night than day. As raaf suggested, I wouldn't want to be out too late at night.

Answer 4

I would say around 7-8 but if you have a partner you can run a little bit later.
