    I would assume he works irregular hours and is doing his best to find time to exercise.

    It's only crazy if it's an unsafe neighborhood. I would run at 1:30 AM as well if I feel restless due to lack of exercise.

    Why is it crazy? Maybe he works a different shift? I bet it's nice and cool at night, plus little no car/foot traffic. It's win/win.

    Not everyone works 9-5 and can exercise at 'regular' times....it's a big wide world out there after all....we don't all live the same lifestyle.

    ^ :laugh:

    I wait or my kids to go to bed before I work out or leave the house to work out. That way i dont take more time away from them. So I dont really leave my house till 9, and then jog a the track until abput 1030 pm. Suprisingly, there's people there after me as well.

    In Texas during the summer that's the best temperature you're gonna get all day! When I did marathon training sometimes I'd start at 1-2 am to beat the heat!

    Maybe he wasn't running for exercise as much as he was running for safety.

    That brings to mind a new TV show idea: "Survival Inner City".

    I used to work till 2:00 AM and had to get a walk/jog outside at around 3 AM. What of it? Its peaceful, quiet and relaxing. If you thought it was weird to jog at 1:30 AM, you'd think of me as crazy if I tell you I used to jog at 3 AM in Michigan while it was snowing or raining outside with slippery roads. You gotta do what you gotta do.

    I'm not a night owl, but I'd love to run at that time. It's cooler, quieter, lower humidity, there's hardly any traffic... sounds like heaven.

    I would like to petition the courts to seal this under the "Mind Your Business Act" of 2009.




    Seriously, why on earth would it shock you? Is 1:30 am not a good time to go jogging? What IS a a good time?

    i personally think he's making the time necessary to stay fit and get some exercise.

    good on him. clearly he's not of the "wahhhhhhh i dont have time to exercise" mindset.

    I often go for midnight walks here in Cali and often went for 2:00am walks in Michigan during the winters. I prefer walking at night because it is more peaceful.

    If he feels safe doing it. I know I wouldn't. Then again that would require me being AWAKE at that time as well!

    I think you need to do some traveling if this is what you think.

    Doubt it. In my old neighborhood we had a kid who was crazy and he went and sat on his kitchen stove butt naked while it was burning. Even after seeing that I can't say I've seen everything.

    This is around the time I usually leave my friends house if I am leaving early. Leaving my friends house at around 4 am is leaving late for me. So I see no problem with someone running, jogging, or walking between 1 am and 2 am.
