Would it be worthwhile to go for a half-hour long run in the mornings to improve my focus and productivity as a student in a very competitive environment, even if my schedule is tight and my exercise is currently non-existent?
When should I go for a run to help me focus?
I've been doing morning exercise in the form of a Zone 2 endurance run to wake up my body and make it easier for me to wake up at 5 am, since that is a shift from my natural chronotype wake-up time.

Some people, according to neuroscience, advise you to get into working or studying as soon as you get up. Basically, you wake up and start to work or study, and then the day unfolds afterwards. They affirm that this is both based on neuroscience and one of the hallmark skills employed by some of the most successful entrepreneurs. What should I do to optimize my morning routine for both physical and mental performance?
