the body adapts and i think running this way is why i can hit times in races (where i'm fully fueled and caffeinated) that i can't during training.
If you were fully fueled and caffeinated during training, you would be faster.

There's research to be done...
bump. guys please share your thoughts on this. im currently doing 1 hour runs in the morning. then i drive home and do core and strength excercises for another hour. do you guys think i could get away with not eating in the morning before my run and eat after i finish my core training? and what about more intense workouts.have you done those early in the morning on empty stomachs?

It doesn’t make a blind bit of difference, any benefit gained from not eating before a run is entirely psychological.
I run every morning before work for an hour, no intake of anything before the run. You will be fine.
I also do my long runs without GU or anything like that for the most part. When it is getting closer to race day I will bring along whatever sort of nutrition I plan on consuming during the race.
I do this because it is more convenient since I have to do the whole 'go to work all day' thing.
Hard to believe the OP was a serious question and taken as such.
Personally I run better at night, with a full day of fuel in my stomach.
There’s this Intermittent Fasting movement that seems to address that. Just google “intermittent fasting” and it’s there.
How do you guys crap in the morning, I just can't do it before 7:30 and that's too late for me to start a run.
Coffee doesn't always jump start the engine if you know what I mean, when it's that early.
The father of aerobics, Dr. Kenneth Copper, touched upon that subject in the first edition of "Aerobics". From what I remember, it doesn't make a difference to at least conditioning when you eat, or what time you run. First thing in the moring is perfectly ok. However, he did note that it better to not run within 2 hours of eating. The blood is at the stomach at this time.
However, in my experience first of the morning runs are very nice but I find that if I do more than two days in a row I much more sore than if I run in the late morning and later.
