Do people generally go on hikes after work?

Yes. Of course. That’s the whole point of shifting the daylight hours.

You get off work and head to the crag to climb a few routes before it gets dark. It’s like a little mini weekend every evening for those summer months.

But yeah, if you never take advantage of that, it’s understandable to want some light in the morning I guess. But yikes, why not go out and enjoy the sunshine?

So you get the sunlight when you are about to go to sleep and none when you wake up. That doesn’t sound healthy.

Exercising in the sun for 3 or 4 hours a day doesn’t sound healthy? Compared to the guy who planned to spend that time in the pub?

If that means that bedtime falls within 3 hours of the sunset then so be it. I’ve survived this long at least.

I find that physical activity promotes sound sleep.
