    I run in the evening. I do it because I have to wait until I put my son to bed at night. It usually ends up being around 8:30. I only do it a couple times a week though. I have a gym membership and I go work out there during the day 3 days a week as well.

    Sleep hasn't been affected as far as I can tell.

    My docotor told me it doesn't matter what time, to just get the exercise. At first you may find it hard to sleep (some have no problems like me), and after a while your body will get used to it.

    I run in the evenings between 6:30 and 8:30. When I finish, I am typically wide awake so I don't go to bed until around 11 or 11:30. Running and exercising energizes me, but it affects everyone differently. Just like coffee. I can drink 1-2 cups and go straight to sleep if I'm tired, while it keeps others awake.
