Most people, when they go to bed, aim to sleep until the morning - but some wake up and are active in the middle of the night.
Last week, we published a story about the myth that an eight-hour sleep is necessary for good health. In response, 10 people told us how they sleep in two separate chunks - and what they do in between.
Brennan Wenck-Reilly, 36, San Francisco, US
I spent two years living high in the Andes in a town that had no electricity where I went to sleep and rose with the sun. Now I naturally wake around 01:00 or 02:00 and then become tired again around 03:00 and sleep until 07:00 or so.
My friends have always made fun of my sleep pattern and my wife used to force me to get out of bed as my lying there would disturb her.
I've decided to use this time creatively and run around San Francisco taking pictures in the night. We just had a small storm pass through the city, so there are some cool clouds in the sky. I have been itching to go out.
