But if for some reason I am there early (6:00 am) or late (5:00 pm) my times and stamina are not as good. I have always wondered if noon is my naturally best time or if I have trained my body to be at its best then?<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/10330?ContentTypeID=1Fri, 05 Dec 2003 12:44:38 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:f937ef5b-27e2-446c-8b33-5508eace65b1Former MemberThis has brought up a really interesting point.I recently started a new job that I have to leave home for at 5.30am.So there goes my early morning session.But,it means that I can get back in time for a session in the afternoon before all the lane hoggers get there at 7pm.I&#39;m more relaxed with my swimming as well,so I get to do better times.:)<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/10288?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 04 Dec 2003 10:33:12 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:b9868497-2ac4-4e2b-8ff0-d22502d6db94Former MemberGREAT! I would love to dare to do that - ring in sick. Because of the times I work at an airline I miss so much training with the squad and have to make it up in public sessions. I really am thinking of changing jobs just so I can train more but is that going OTT?<div style="clear:both;"></div>
