]]> Many people are either set on working out in the morning or working out at night. But, for some of us, exercising before work isn’t possible, especially during the summer. In the summer, running in the morning or during the day isn’t ideal as it’s way too hot outside. Whether you’re new to working out in the evening or are trying to boost your nighttime workout, these tips will help you get the most out of your workout at night.

Start After Sunset

In the summer during the day, the hot temperatures make it almost unbearable to run. The heat causes your heart to work harder, decreasing your endurance. Try running after dusk to maximize your workout.

Build Up a Tolerance

Within three to four sessions, you body will acclimate to the humidity. To get used to the heat, ease into working out a night with a few light exercise sessions and keep your pace a little slower than usual.

Dinner Time

Trying to decide what and when to eat before evening exercises can be difficult. It’s best to eat something light before you exercise that has carbs and protein. If you’re used to eating an early dinner, eat part of your dinner before your run and save the rest for after.

Warm Up

Before you head out, make sure you warm up and stretch for around 10 to 15 minutes. This will allow your muscles to prepare for a run and your eyes to adjust to the dark.

Quality wise, this isn’t the best picture, but thanks to night mode I was able to get a shot that captures a few of my own running quirks, or “runnerisms” as I like to call them. – One: I’m a night runner. This doesn’t mean I won’t get out during the day. In all honesty, there’s nothing I enjoy more than getting out in the middle of a sunny afternoon. Unfortunately that isn’t always an option. So, given the choice between getting up early or going out late, I’ll choose late every time. Especially now it’s nice… there are a lot less people to have to try and maneuver around at 10 PM. – Two: I rock the half tights. I remember in high school being self conscious about wearing tights without anything over top of them, but the college years broke me of that. Now they are my preferred choice for training and my go-to short for racing. – Three: I tuck the shirt to run. Seriously,it drives me nuts to feel my shirt flapping around while I’m running. This is especially important to me when choosing an outfit to race in. If the singlet isn’t long enough to stay tucked in, I’m not going to race in it. – Do you have any “runnerisms” of your own? – Let me now in the comments! – #runnerisms #runningquirks #nighttimerun #nighttimerunner #nightrun #runninginthedark #gettingtherunin #betterlatethannever #runnersofinstagram #dontcallitacomebackyet #stillrunning #oncearunneralwaysarunner #nightmode #runphilly #runphillystyle #runningtshirt #run610 #runwalk #runwalkrun #buildingslowly #buildingslowlybutsurely #smallvictories #hamstringstretch #ineedtostretchmore #postrunstretch #runleisure #running #runningagain #shorttights #runningtights

Wear Proper Gear

When running or biking outside at night, make sure you wear reflective materials to ensure that drivers can see you when it’s dark outside. The reflectivity on your clothes should be on the parts of your body that will be moving the most.
