Running at night

I like running at night opposed to in the mornings...are there any downsides to running before bed? I usually run come home...stretch, eat, shower then sleep. I rather run at night then go to bed earlier and heal through the night but is this a bad thing to do?

The only issue is the elevated body temp usually makes it harder for people to fall asleep, which is also why alot of people prefer to run in the morning to "wake up" more. There is an opportunity for increased liposis from running pre-breakfest but that's about it. If you sleep fine and pefrom better, train at night

I love running in the dark I have found, so I hate running during the summer but winter is win win. Plus, running when it's cold and raining = bliis

I hate running in the morning, it's the devil. Running nights is fine, just don't leave it to close to bed as Standard said.

Not for because I don't go to sleep until maybe an hour after I get home. I feel I sleep better because I am tired from the run. Thanks for the input guys.
