I just want to know how you guys get up so early in the morning (be at the pool at 5:30) to swim. Are there any tips you can give me? I'm interested in joining the Masters Swim program but the only thing is that it is so dang early in the morning. And let me tell you, I am NOT a morning person. Any way to get use to this, especially if I do decide to swim early, early in the morning? Plus, getting in the water makes me feel good, and even after I have done a workout. I have those days where I absolutely do not want to swim, (and I'm sure most of us have had that) but once I get in the water and swim, I'm fine. If you could please share some tips with me I would greatly appreciate it.

I find some good tips from those who have already responded. I think once you make this a routine, you will have much less of a problem (but there will be those days!!!). I know for me, that as soon as my feet hit the floor I am awake and ready to go. But if I put off getting my feet out of the covers and onto the floor, I can easily talk myself in to not doing it! You might intially promise yourself something good for after the workout (a latte, a nice breakfas out, or something else special to you). Eventually you will hopefully not need that promise as a motivator.
