A really tricky problem, this one, Elaine!
For our relationship the following is done in an attempt to make and keep the peace.
1. All training completed in time for the early morning cuppa to be bedside as her eyes start opening. :)
2. Never ask her to be poolside for competitions as 'beep, splash, beep, splash, etc' is very boring for spectators and she always misses my races :(
3. Travel meets must always be holiday destination spots that she has always wanted to visit!
Some of the time it works :):)
TI (think) I follow a variation of #1 since my wife is an early riser - make the latte and deliver it to her in bed BEFORE I go swim!
#2 absolutely!
