There are robberies along the beaches even during the day. At night, your odds of getting mugged or worse go up considerably.

I would not recommending running on the actual beach. But you do see lots of people (including young pretty chicas) running on the jogger/bike path next to the beach. Again, as with everything in Rio always be aware of your surroundings and who is around you.
Still, I'd say no later than 9PM or so.
