Zachary S first half this morning, finishing tonight
Go for a run over sunrise and again over sunset of the same day. One of the best parts of running is the scenery, and what is better than getting out there when the sky is ablaze with beautiful colours. Run east in the morning and west in the evening to get the most of it.
Dawn and dusk Challenge rules
- Run at sunrise and at sunset on the same day

“Really good challenge, loved running into the sunset :) Official distance for the sunset run 4.93k in 30:29. Just missed out on the 5k under 30 minutes, but i changed route for this run, added a big hill, which may have slowed me down a tad..... ”

Brian K Even though I was tired, and my calves were still a little sore from the run this morning, I pushed myself to complete this challenge. This was a good challenge.
Nice work, Brian! That's what these challenges are all about!

Lorain R I'm usually getting into my pajamas this time of night, but instead if being in bed at 7:30 p.m. tonight, I'll be on a run to complete this challenge. I don't usually run in the evening, either, because I don't sleep well after strenuous exercise. This challenge will definitely be a stretch for me but I'm grateful to be able to do it!

Time 00:44:24. Not so difficult :)

Bruce B Just a note: I did this in Yukon Canada when the sun set and rose within 40 minutes. Does that count... not.

Are you sure you want to quit this Challenge?
Why not ask for some advice from other Challenge takers, or read some of the Challenge guides first?
OK, I'll keep working at it!Choose a background image
