Actually, when I run depends on the season. I run as early as possible in the summer, at midday or early afternoon in the winter, and in between....in between. (I work at home and so can set my own schedule.) I occasionally run in the evening but the weather is usually nicer in the early morning.

I was a triathlete in the late 80s, when I was in grad school and the sport was just getting started, and running was my least favorite part. Then I did a bunch of other things, including a bit of running, biking and swimming for fun but not competitively. I moved to a new town in 2002 and started running as a way of exploring my new surroundings. And oddly, I suddenly started really enjoying it.
