Should I take the day off or smart my mileage in for the day? I'm thinking a workout would be stupid but is easy mileage ok?

Why not just go to sleep and then run when you wake up. If you don't plan on sleeping until night, you might as well go about your normal day including running. I've run after all nighters more than a few times, after a few minutes you don't even really feel tired; just run how you feel, easy or hard.
Stupid
Stupid to pull the all nighter in the first place but I would run to help destress if nothing else.

Had one of my best races ever after an "all nighter".

I've done this in my mid-20s after getting about 3 hours of sleep and then working 10-11 hours at my job and my legs were just dead. I ran on a treadmill and I got fatigued pretty quickly.
I think it is better to get in a run than not run at all, but don't expect a great or long workout
I also ran one of my best races ever after an all nighter. I wasn't drinking, though.
Is booze and/or women involved?

This. Students that pull one nighters usually are bad ones. You are not LR material. You will never make 300k/year. Bye bye.

I used to drive 1250 miles to south Florida, get out of my car and run 10+ miles at a 5:40 mile pace closing under 10:15 for last 2 miles. Then go to sleep earlier then normal. No one can tell a 20 something what to do. Do what you want to do like the rest of us.
Not sure it's wise, but I've done it many times. I'm an extreme creature of habit (maybe a bit OCD?) so I like to stick to my schedule unless I absolutely can't do it. Also, runs in the middle of the night (3am, for example) can be quite peaceful. It's not ideal, but it can be fun.
At least he's probably not a nerdy scrawny Virgin loser like yourself. Go back inside your mothers fish flaps
Run whatever was scheduled, just make sure you're hydrated and have had enough to eat. And get enough sleep tonight.
I have too many of those for work. Usually fine to run the next day after a short nap. It catches up with me later in the week.
Yep. there are different kinds of all nighters. I've run after both. I survived the first kind but not the second (aka women and booze).

One of my college teammates showed up for morning run at 6 am after staying up all night with some regularity. He got into med school, so he must have been a good enough student.
pulled a few myself wrote:
Pulling an nighters for projects and papers I understand. Have to finish the work.
But for an exam just go to sleep. Unless you have totally procrastinated studying late the night before won't help.

Awesome
What was her name? Pics?
Physiologically, it would be smart to run. Your leg muscles and aerobic system will be unaffected by the lack of sleep. It's the meta-niteals in your cerebrum that are affected most by lack of sleep. Running doesn't affect these unless you run for more than 2 hours, or if you're over 40 about 90 minutes or if you're over 60 about 60 minutes.
