  • Do you run in the A.M. or P.M.?


    A: A.M. only

    B: P.M. only

    C: Both

    I meant to do this as a poll but for some reason it wouldn't let me. Oh well.

    My answer is: A.
  • C: Both

    Depends on the day. Weekdays I choose to run in the evening b/c I just can't get up that early (yet) to run. Weekends are great for morning running for me.
  • Well i hear running in the morning kick starts your metabolism, Soooo AM!
  • A: I run/exercise the morning. Since I am a stay-at-home mom that lets me it get over with before the excuses pile up
  • PM! That's the only time I've got!
  • AM all the way! PM only if I missed my AM for some reason.
  • Noon! I guess that is technically PM, but I run on my lunch hour...
  • AM for sure! I just can't run/exercise in the PM.
  • EARLY A.M. when no one is around and then it's over and done with
  • Afternoon/Evening. I just can't drag myself out of bed any earlier than I have to. I also can't run on an empty stomach, but can't run within an hour or two of eating so I'm not waking up at 4 to eat, to run for 5, to shower for 6 to get to work for 8. ha!
  • P.M. for me.

    I use my run as a reward for getting my other things done and a way to get out of the house. It's a nice way to end the day and is a good stress release.

    I might change it up a bit and start running mornings as the weather warms up and the days start to get longer.
  • Both. But by far my performance is better in the p.m. Dusk really. There's nothing like watching the sunset during a run. Absolutely breathtaking!!
