I am an evening swimmer 8:30-10:00
Our outdoor long course pool opened, but is only going to be used for am (6:00-7:30) workouts for the next month. I love swimming outdoors and long course so I thought, "I'll do it- I'll swim in the morning". So I did today. Now it is about 1pm and I am fading fast. I can't keep my train of thought. I just put my head down to get a little micro-sleep and noticed two different socks poking out from my pant bottoms (One all black anfd one black with red flowers). I was just curious what the break down of amers/lunch timers/pmers was. Also, any advice on how to get up in the morning?

NOT a morning person, however, masters swimming is 5:30 to 6:45am.....some mornings I think I dreamt about swimming, THEN I wake up and realize my workout is DONE! YAY!.....and yes it took me about 6 months to get used to swimming at this hour. Now our Sat morning practice starts at 7:00am and I feel like I am sleeping in. The plus side as a previous swimmer noted, you DO get to spend more time with your family and friends in the evenings.
One other note, the first few months, I ended up taking naps in my car during lunch......now I just go to bed at 8:30pm.
